ABSTRACT:
An onboard star tracking system is used to provide continuous attitude and orbital position data independent of the image generating instruments. Such data is instantaneously and continually supplied to the onboard computer which translates such information into mirror position coordinates which is added to the mirror position set based on estimated data from the ground control. An error signal is generated which is used to further adjust the position of the mirror.
