“There is no such thing as failure–only feedback for course correction.”
It is rumored that a missile is of course over 90% of the time. That the purpose of its guidance systems are to constantly course correct, course correct, course correct. Most of the time, with an effective guidance system, we know that even given that necessity for course correction, the missile hits its intended target with a reasonably high level of accuracy.

From the Marin Independent Journal August 7th, 2006:
San Rafael firefighters are investigating the cause of a two-alarm fire that destroyed a D Street apartment Sunday afternoon. No one was injured in the fire. “We have no idea what caused it,” Battalion Chief Ritt Hewitt said.
He said the fire’s origins were confusing, but not suspicious.
“It began in a room that was almost bare, except for some books and small electronic items,” Hewitt said. “We’re not sure what happened.”
Firefighters arrived at 412 D Street at 2:19 p.m. to find a small but intense fire burning in the apartment of Addrianna Reitenbach.
