An astronaut in low Earth orbit moves in (approximately) a big circle extending around the Earth. ... That can be interpreted as stating that in the astronaut's frame of reference, all bodies are subject to two forces, gravity and the centrifugal force, and the two are in perfect balance, adding up to zero. ...

Instrument Science Report OSG-CAL-97-06 Velocity Aberration Correction for Parallel Observations Colin Cox October 22, 1997 ABSTRACT The velocity aberration correction performed by the HST pointing control software is valid for the target direction only. ... For directions within 500 arcsec of the target the variation of the correction difference does not exceed 24 milli-arcsec. ... As HST orbits about the earth, the barycentric velocity and hence the velocity aberration correction varies. ...

Appendix A: Derivation of the Secondary Sag as a Function of Telescope Altitude . One-half of the secondary support structure consists of the two rods shown in Figure 9 plus the opposing rods on the other side of the secondary cage. The total tension force on a single rod can be decomposed into a thermal component and a base tension that is set at the time when the rods are originally tensioned with the turnbuckles. ... The axial force balance equation is then given by . ...
