... 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. ...

... TEXAS SURVEY: THE PRELIMINARY -35 and stronger than 0.25 Jy is intended to provide accurate (one arc-second rms error) positions, flux densities and structure models for each of the ~70000 sources expected to be listed. ... Average rms position accuracy for point sources is 1" in RA and 0.5" in DEC. ... 1 is the source name in IAU format. ... Thus, (+1,+1) means the second most likely lobe is 51.8" LATER in RA, and 51.8"*sec(z) HIGHER in DEC than the position listed. ...
