If you're interested in this story, it may be in print
somewhere, but
it's also in this podcast that you can listen to online, with no
add-on apps:

It is very easy to make a rocket. The difficult part is the
flight
control unit that keeps the rocket flying straight and narrow
instead of
going in random directions after liftoff and crashing back to
earth near
the launchpad.

A modern smartphone has all the sensors required to let the
rocket
correct its course and guide itself to its destination.

All you need to do is write an App and send the output to an
interface
to control the power of each of the three nozzles (a rocket as
no wings
or rudder, so a minimum of three nozzles would be needed to
make the
rocket go in any direction you want it to).

North Korea makes smartphones:

Download this Android App (Sensors Multitool) to read the
sensors:

This "Sensors Multitool" App can read all the sensors in your
Android
smartphone (everything you need to guide a missile to its
destination):

GPS
Rotation Vector
Linear Acceleration
Gravity
Gyroscope
Accelerometer
Magnetic
Pressure
Orientation

The story is about the engines. N. Korea couldn't get a mid-range
rocket to fire reliably. All of a sudden, they're building
ICBMs that
work.

The analysts recently realized why. The engines are Cold-War-Era
Russian -- possibly made in the old Russian heavy-engine
factory in
the Ukraine.

I think you mean mean russia, not ukraine.

The factory is a holdover from the Sobiet days. It's in Ukraine.

there is no ukraine. there is only russia.


Blink blink...huh? Might want to tell that to the Ukrainians

The Ukraine only comprises about 603,550 sq km of land.... maybe he
over looked it?

The russians had no problem walking in and taking over the parts they
wanted with no resistance. Any place that wimpy isn't even a country.


Im not sure if 15 million dead

Bogus.

Yeah, as usually, Gunner is full of ****.


When I see a posting from The Question Mark Kid I am reminded of the
report of the little girl who went to school in Kansas City, Mo..
who's mother is irate because everyone is getting her name wrong.

It seems that her birth certificate has her name spelled as "LE-A" and
her mother insists that it is pronounced "Ledasha".
You see, her mother told the school board, "The dash don't be silent".

And obviously neither does the question mark.
