Apr 19, 2020 at 19:07 comment added litmus I'm probably missing something here, but I have to ask. It is stated that the stealth missile $M$ is traveling in a straight line, and we know its location and time at launch. If, for instance, both space stations are maintaining same orbit (i.e. their distance is constant); shouldn't that mean that we know the (shortest or longest) path the stealth missile will take assuming the sphere is symmetrical around its x-axis?
