	Yes.  You just use the standard rules from MT for the Missile. 
If
the target is 6 inches away then the attack occurs.  This just means
that
the Newtonian missile waits a while until it fires.
	For those who want to track number of burns per missile, I
really
don't want to start moving in the direction of SFB.  So the Standard
Newtonian Missiles can thrust for 3 turns, the Mini Missile for 2 Turns.
