| 内容記述 | An analysis of the fine pointing errors of the Hubble Space Telescope (HST), in the range from 1 to 15 milliarcsecs, is reported on. The emphasis is on the study of the performance characteristics of the pointing control system, fine guidance sensors and the optical telescope assembly, which produce relative attitude and astrometric measurement errors. Since the first servicing mission in December 1993, the HST relative short term position stability is of the order of 3 milliarcsecs RMS when averaged over 1 min intervals. At this level of accuracy, longer term systematic attitude errors in this range can have a noticeable impact on the telescope's observations. The various error sources are described, including: internal temperature effects; spacecraft structure temperature effects; calibration procedures, and computational inaccuracies. |
