A Quick Look at Jitter Estimation
Ideally, the jitter should be estimated from an independent observer
(a sensor not constrained by the FGS486 control loop), my preference
of choice is the Astrometer.
A good POS mode observation on a bright star, for determining the
jitter impact on the Astrometer, is still being anticipated in the near future.
A prudent person would wait for the POS mode.
A prudent person is patient.
So ….. Here …… are the results.
