Schematic for Moving Target Observation
MT offset command repositions Guide Star and initiates moving guide star tracking
– MT ephemeris defines guide star position such that science target is in SI aperture
– ACS iterates offset slew calculation and computes guide star position P3 at time T3
– ACS returns T3 and P3 to ISIM Scripts; ISIM sets up FGS for track mode
– ACS executes offset slew from P2 to P3 prior to T3
TE = End of Ephemeris
– ACS waits until T3 and then starts MT tracking of guide star

Recent Progress on Moving Target Capability
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Moving targets with apparent rates up to 30 mas/second
Includes Mars and beyond, but not all possible comets
Pointing stability of 0.050 arcsec (3σ) for rate of 0.003 arcsec/second
Defined the operational concept and the commands/telemetry
exchanged between observing scripts and spacecraft attitude control
for autonomous execution of moving target observations.
Preliminary Design Review for moving target capability will be in
December 2012
Will include first simulations of moving target pointing performance
using non-linear stability analysis with dynamics model for JWST
observatory
Moving target Critical Design Review will be in summer 2013
Moving target observations will be supported in first year of JWST
observing
Cycle 1 Call for Proposals in 2017
