  1. I'll add my coin in that. To shoot at anything you not only need to know where it is, you need to point your cannon at target. And here you'll face the world of angular encoders. Top notch encoders could "resolute" up to 30 bits per circle, mean 1/1000000000 of circle. Problem is that in my lab we had never ever get stable reading more that 19 valuable bits. It's about 0.0007 arcseconds, which, assuming targeting something as far away as is moon will lead in miss of about 750 meters.
