Their timing is impeccable. If I have it correctly, they launched at just about exactly--at almost--six minutes before the Shuttle Launch.

Their's (DPRK) was a six minute flight, and then splashdown int to Sea of Japan. (about 600 to 700 km from Japanese coastline).

Therefore, the DPRK missile, the first one, made earth contact at exactly the liftoff time of the Shuttle. Kim is really stupid but interesting nonetheless.
