... The HST uses an onboard model of its orbit to perform in real-time various control functions relating to spacecraft operations and observation support. ... New coefficients for the ephemeris are updated every other day, and are archived as FITS keywords for each HST observation data set. Using these coefficients,an observer can perform a variety of calibration and characterization calculations relating to the orbital position and velocity of the telescope. ...

Three different forms are possible for representing Results of calculation of spherical coordinates: . the form designated as EMP is similar to that used in the Ephemerides of Minor Planets, having formal precision of 0.01 minute of time in right ascension and 0.1 minute of arc in declination. Longitude, latitude, azimuth and altitude are also displayed with comparable formal precision. the form designated as Positions has enhanced formal precision. ...
