   73 seconds into flight, so with roughly 50 seconds of fuel left, would   
   it be fair to state that a determined SRB without any payload would have   
   had plenty of fuel to reach the coast?   
      
   Does range safety look at worse case scenario of the SRB going staight   
   for the coast, or would they consider the "real life" behaviour of a   
   stray SRB veering off in random directions and having little chance of   
   reaching coast with 50 seconds of fuel?
