Jet misalignment defined as perpendicular distance from line of thrust of rocket motor to center of gravity of vehicle; subject is of interest because thrust of rocket motor, acting over misalignment distance as lever arm, sets up pitching (or yawing) moment about center of gravity which tends to swing vehicle off its prescribed trajectory.
