Instrument Science Report NICMOS 2003-004 Measuring the Cold Mask Offset E. Roye, J. Krist, A.B. Schultz, T. Wiklind April 23, 2003 ABSTRACT An unexpected increase in measured thermal background during the Cycle 11 early calibration program caused speculation that the cold mask position could have shifted since Cycle 7. ... It was concluded that the cold mask position was not the cause of increased thermal background observed during the Cycle 11 early calibration program. ...

... The distomats measure the average height of the platform every 2 minutes. If the average platform height is more than .04 inches from the nominal position, the tiedowns will pull (or release) equally on all 3 corners to bring the average height back to the nominal position. ... The platform corner height versus dome position (at fixed average platform height) shows that the platform corners move by +/- 6 inches just from the dome motion (this was before the alfa upgrade). ...
