she was a stray picked up off the street iirc and all she wanted was love and a home. the scientists would play with her and stuff even tho they weren’t supposed to. on her last day one of them took her home and let her do anything she wanted and made sure she was super loved because he knew she wasn’t gonna make it back home
The guidance subsystem uses deviations to generate corrective commands to drive the missile from a position where it is to a position where it isn’t, and arriving at a position where it wasn’t, it now is. Consequently, the position where it is, is now the position that it wasn’t, and it follows that the position that it was, is now the position that it isn’t.
In the event that the position that it is in is not the position that it wasn’t, the system has acquired a variation. The variation being the difference between where the missile is and where it wasn’t. If variation is considered to be a significant factor, it too may be corrected by the GEA.
However, the missile must also know where it was. The missile guidance computer scenario works as follows: because a variation has modified some of the information the missile has obtained, it is not sure just where it is. However, it is sure where it isn’t, within reason, and it knows where it was.
Ik I feel so bad for her, I even mentioned it the day of the landing—that being that the Russian space program doesn’t really even have anything cool or memorable besides Sputnik and then there’s the Laika situation that comes alongside it, it’s like bruh. Their tanks are shit (they get stuck in the mud), their space program does that, they’re losing to ukraine, and then half their missiles are no longer serviced 😭
