2. Bruno Altieri 21-22 Jan. 2009 http://herschel.esac.esa.int/http://herschel.esac.esa.int/ # 2 Pointing Working Group A pointing working group was set-up early 2008, by the SciOps WG between Project, MOC (FD), HSC and ICCs. A pointing calibration plan was issued –T. Marston, HERSCHEL-HSC-DOC-1139, v1.0, 5/8/2008 –Herschel relies on PACS (blue) photometer for spacecraft pointing performance assessment The plan was later de-scoped to only use Star Tracker 1

ISO first light Advantages: –Visible 23/04 – 09/08 –Hint about orientation Drawback –Not point-like, but companion is ! Derive SIAM Check SIAM update –Standard PS mode –HIP 21479 (always visible) 140 Jy Already a scan map at the end of BOLO_BIAS_2 ?

SIMS-1 –OD 65 already delivered (standard AORs) CAP from Dieter Tested 2D gaussian fitting in dp-pacs –Though not as robust as in IDL
