   * **Question:**  Are these velocities and accelerations calculated from the numbers given exact?
-  * **Expected Answer:**  No, we would need to take measurements a lot closer together.
+  * **Expected Answer:**  No, these are only average numbers, not instantaneous.  In order to get more "exact" numbers, we would need more data.
   * **Question:**  Is the predicted position of the rescue craft a good one?
