(...) If you go by pure physics, the fact that you're in a vacuum would make everything more stable, since there's no real resistance. Besides, a sophisticated self-guided missile should be able to auto-correct the thruster outputs based on constant (...) (21 years ago, 7-Jun-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) It depends on what you're trying to do. If you want fast and furious, and you don't care much about accuracy, you go with a tube-shaped missile with centrally located thrusters that use constant-burn to crank up the speed before the target can (...)
