Spacecraft Pointing Information

Outline

Schema Definitions

This type is an object with the following properties:

  • ra_v1

    numberRequired

    Right Ascension of the Telescope V1 Axis (deg)

    The right ascension coordinate of the V1 axis in units of degrees. This may be considered the right ascension coordinate of the telescope boresight. The telescope V coordinate system is defined with its origin at the vertex of the primary mirror. The V1 axis is orthogonal to the primary mirror, parallel to the telescope boresight, and increasing positively through the telescope aperture. See Roman-STScI-000143 “Description of the Roman SIAF and Coordinate Frames” for more information.

  • dec_v1

    numberRequired

    Declination of the Telescope V1 Axis (deg)

    The declination coordinate of the V1 axis in units of degrees. This may be considered the declination coordinate of the telescope boresight. The telescope V coordinate system is defined with its origin at the vertex of the primary mirror. The +V1 axis is orthogonal to the primary mirror, parallel to the telescope boresight, and increasing positively through the telescope aperture. See Roman-STScI-000143 “Description of the Roman SIAF and Coordinate Frames” for more information.

  • pa_v3

    numberRequired

    Position Angle of the Telescope V3 Axis (deg)

    The position angle of the V3 axis (in units of degrees) is defined as the projection of the V3 axis on the sky measured from North to East. The telescope V coordinate system is defined with its origin at the vertex of the primary mirror. The +V3 axis is defined to be orthogonal to the sunshield. See Roman-STScI-000143 “Description of the Roman SIAF and Coordinate Frames” for more information.

  • target_aperture

    stringRequired

    Aperture Name Used for Pointing

    Name of the aperture used to align the instrument to a position on the sky.

    Maximum length: 100

  • target_ra

    numberRequired

    Right Ascension of the Target Aperture (deg)

    Right ascension in units of degrees at the location of the target aperture.

  • target_dec

    numberRequired

    Declination of the Target Aperture

    Declination in units of degrees at the location of the target aperture.
