Answer
The
missile
knows
where
it
is
at
all
times.
It
knows
this
because
it
knows
where
it
isn't.
By
subtracting
where
it
is
from
where
it
isn't,
or
where
it
isn't
from
where
it
is
(whichever
is
greater),
it
obtains
a
difference,
or
deviation.
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
system
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
knows
where
it
was.
It
now
subtracts
where
it
should
be
from
where
it
wasn't,
or
vice
versa,
and
by
differentiating
this
from
the
algebraic
sum
of
where
it
shouldn't
be,
and
where
it
was,
it
is
able
to
obtain
the
deviation
and
its
variation,
which
is
called
error.
