2010/2011 Venus Observation
Objectives & Overview
• Explain Venus observing strategy.
• Review areas of special concern with Venus observations and explain how
these concerns are being addressed.
• Determine if the implementation is correct and complete.
• Why is Venus Special ?
• At its farthest, Venus gets to be about 47 degrees from the Sun.
• HST is normally not permitted to point within 50 degrees of the Sun.

2010/2011 Venus Observation
Venus Observing Program History
• In 1995, HST observed Venus with GHRS and WFPC2 (GO 4518 and GO
5783).
• In 1996, two GO Venus proposals (6607 and 6771) were approved by the
TAC; and there was one GTO/WF2 program (6851) to observe Venus. All of
these were cancelled by the STScI Director shortly after phase 2 submission.
• In 1997, there was a GTO/STIS program (7581) to observe Venus. Much
implementation work was done, but the program was then withdrawn by the
PI.
• In 2003, HST observed Venus with STIS (GO 8659).
• NASA program 12433 is now planned for:
• December 27-28, 2010 (2010.361-362)
• January 22, 2011
• January 27, 2011

Areas of Concern
•
•
•
•
Guide star acquisition failure
Spacecraft or instrument problem shortly before scheduled observing time
FGS exposure to Venus
HST being exposed to sunlight while pointed within the Solar Avoidance
Zone (SAZ)
• HST safing while pointed within the SAZ
19 Jan 2011
P. 13
2010/2011 Venus Observation
Guide Star Acquisition Failure
• Concern
• If attitude error is greater than the search radius, the guide star acquisition could fail
resulting in the loss of the science.
• Precautions
• The chances are minimized by the short 5 degree slew to Venus.
• Too late to perform guide star acquisition test. Stars are in solar avoidance zone.
• Science exposures will proceed even if GS acquisition fails.
• Special commanding specified to ignore “take data” flag.
• AQEXPIRE timer adjusted via SMS edit.
• Detector is protected because HST is in shadow
• CCD is utilized for observation
19 Jan 2011
P. 14
2010/2011 Venus Observation
Problem Shortly Before Observation
• Concern
• An unrelated problem may threaten the Venus observing window.
• In 1995, the Venus observation was originally lost due to an unrelated safing; but it
was quickly replanned and executed successfully.
• The 2003 Venus observations were delayed from 2001 due to the failure of the
STIS side 1 electronics.
• Remedy
• Second choice coordination opportunity with Venus Express on January 23, 2011
19 Jan 2011
P. 15
2010/2011 Venus Observation
FGS Exposure To Venus
• Concern
• If the attitude error is large enough (> 300 arcseconds), an FGS could
possibly see Venus and cause potential bright light exposure to the FGS
photo-multiplier tubes.
• Precautions
• Choose a guide star that is as far as possible from Venus.
• The chosen guide stars are:
» Visit 01 : magnitude 12.4 and 15.5 arcminutes from Venus.
» Visit 02 : magnitude 11.7 and 16.8 arcminutes from Venus.
» Visit 03 :
• Orbit 1: magnitude 11.2 and 13.8 arcminutes from Venus.
• Orbit 2: magnitude 11.5 and 12.5 arcminutes from Venus.
19 Jan 2011
P. 16
2010/2011 Venus Observation
FGS Exposure To Venus
• FGS PMT can tolerate and return to normal performance.
• Goodrich assessed PMT damage should a worst-case event occur resulting in an
attempted acquisition of Venus with an FGS (ref: Goodrich Memo A16-ST-2254)
• Goodrich reports the short-term effect of the Venus acquisition would be the
temporary incapacitation of the PMTs due to dark count elevation. While the
exact value is not available for the given intensity, literature quotes range from
several to 48 hours for recovery (for any target).
• Goodrich performed a relative assessment of the long-term effects of Coulomb
draw (charge depletion) while attempting to acquire Venus with an FGS. While it
is hard to determine exactly how the FGS would behave if it attempted to perform
an acquisition on Venus, depending on how long it spends with Venus in the FOV,
you could see a decrease in reliability from 1-3%.

2010/2011 Venus Observation
HST in the Sun
• Concern
• While slewing away from Venus, HST will be exposed to sunlight and pointed
inside the SAZ for up to 3m 2s.
• HST’s maximum previous exposure to sunlight while pointed inside the SAZ was
2m 30s (2003 observation).
• Pointing inside the SAZ while HST is in sunlight can be tolerated for at least 15
minutes before the temperature of the paint inside the OTA would become a
contamination issue. (EM-MOSES-1267 and EM-MOSES-1268)
• TCS has analyzed limits and has confirmed duration can be tolerated.
• Precautions
• Guide star search radius was reduced in order to save 10-30 seconds of
acquisition time.
19 Jan 2011
P. 22
2010/2011 Venus Observation
HST Safing
• Concern
• HST must not enter inertial hold safe mode while pointed within the SAZ.
• Precautions
• Modifying the inertial hold safe mode response such that any condition that would
normally lead to inertial hold without closing the AD leads to software sun point
safe mode instead.
• This was done in both prior HST observations of Venus.

GSACQ Adjustments
Merle Reinhart
19 Jan 2011
P. 24
2010/2011 Venus Observation
GSACQ Adjustments
¤ Idea is to compress the time allowed for the single-star GSACQs to minimize
the time in sunlight within 50° of the sun and/or provide more science
exposing time.
¤ Obvious places for a time compression are
• Spiral Search time
• Move back to the target attitude (GS Offset via #43 command)
¤ STIS will ignore the TDF via special commanding. Thus, need to ensure if
the GSACQ fails, that we are back at the target attitude for the science
exposure.
• This implies a reasonable setting of the AQEXPIRE timer in the SMS call to the
GSACQ PLCP.
¤ The AQEXPIRE changes are done as an SMS Edit.
• If edit were to not occur, the only effect would be if the GSACQ failed, the
spacecraft would not be maneuvered back to the target position prior to the
initiation of the Track51 for the exposure.

3.3 Standalone Testing (continued)
• The STScI generated test SMS was run twice.
• Executed IP-219, Venus Observation SPC Macros, to patch the Safemode
Responses and change the Sun Cosine Limit to support the Venus Observation
• During the first run of the SMS, the acquisitions were allowed to complete
nominally.
• All of the acquisitions performed as expected.
• During the second run of the SMS, the acquisitions were forced to run long in the
PCS Simulator to allow the AQEXPIRE timer to fire off.
• The setting of the AQEXPIRE parameter in the GSACQ blocks was verified to be long
enough to allow enough time for the acquisitions to stop and maneuver the vehicle to
the Target attitude before the Moving Target tracking slews were commanded.
• Executed IP-219, Venus Observation SPC Macros, to back out the Macro
changes.
• If the AQEXPIRE command fires off while the #43 (Vehicle Offset Maneuver)
command is being executed a Command Reject will occur.
• This is the same situation detailed in Ops Note 1973.
• It takes a very unique failure case for this to occur.
• The Vehicle will be at the correct target location if this happens and there are no Health
and Safety concerns. The acquisition will terminate correctly.

STIS Venus Observations
•Test SMS (STISITDF) was generated and delivered to the SISE to
validate special commanding and confirm the CCD observations with
the TDF response disabled, allowing the exposure to continue
regardless of the results of the GSAcq
•All external CCD exposures are normally taken with TDF
response enabled.
• Test SMS was executed on VSTIF on 12-2-10
• NSSC-1 FSW BQ 9.0.8
• STIS FSW CS5.01/MIE4.4 (ov0008)
• Bus monitor tool enabled for logging
• STIS Ops Benches in Safe mode prior to test start
• SMS was executed twice, once with TDF enabled and once
with TDF disabled
• SMS transitioned STIS from Safe to Operate and then
performed two CCD images. One with TDF response disabled
and one with TDF Response Enabled.
• CCD Images were then dumped and headers reviewed to verify
CCD Shutter performance.

4.0 Monitoring and System Impacts
4.1 On-Orbit Validation / Monitoring
• DMS will validate successful load of the (safemode) configuration macro
• PCS will monitor OBAD acq
• PI will validate data prior to Jan observations
4.2 System Impacts
• PCS, SI, EPS: None
• DMS, I&C
• Mat LEI turned off for a 9 hour window
• THERMAL:
• Waiver of CARD 3.1.7.3 (see Section 5.1)
• SAFING:
• Temporary modification to responses of six safemode tests
• In FSW, reducing the Sunpoint Sun protection threshold limit to provide
margin for Venus Observation
• PSEA BOD circuitry provides redundancy against Sun in the
boresight within 38º

5.0 Constraints and Restrictions Review
5.1 CARD
• One waiver is required:
• 3.1.7.3 HST Sun Pointing Limits
• The HST sun angle as measured from the +V1 axis should not go below 50°.
Excursions could raise the OTA baffle temperatures above their bake-out
temperatures and out-gassing may result.
• 46° is required for the Venus observation
• EM MOSES 1067 outlines the thermal impacts to prolonged sun angles <50°
• A nominal Venus Observation as outlined here should not violate any
temperature limits
• An inertial hold safemode at sun angles <50° has the potential to violate
OTA baffle temperature limits
• All contingency procedures comply with the CARD
5.2 OLD
• No operations limitations violated or waivers required in the procedures
• All activities for installation handled by FSW code design and procedure

2010/2011 Venus Observation
6.0 Contingency Planning
6.1 Vehicle Contingencies
• HST safing while pointed within the SAZ
• Concern
• If HST were to enter inertial hold safe mode while pointed within the
SAZ, that could violate thermal temperature limits on the OTA baffles
• After 15 minutes in sunlight at 46° sun angle the OTA baffles exceed
their 121°C bake-out temperature limit (EM MOSES 1067)
• Precautions
• Redirecting certain safemode tests such that conditions that would
normally lead to inertial hold leads to software sun point safe mode
instead to prevent Sun in boresight
• CDH Safing event
• Still activate observation macro
• Allow SMS to continue
• No observation

2010/2011 Venus Observation
6.0 Contingency Planning
6.1 Vehicle Contingencies
• FGS exposure to Venus
• Concern
• If the attitude error is large enough, an FGS could possibly see Venus
and cause potential bright light exposure to the FGS photo-multiplier
tubes.
• Precautions
• Choose guide stars that are as far as possible from Venus
• The chosen guide star is magnitude 12.4 and will be about 15.5
arcminutes from Venus

2010/2011 Venus Observation
6.0 Contingency Planning
6.1 Vehicle Contingencies
• FGS exposure to Venus
• Analysis
• Goodrich assessed PMT damage should a worst-case event occur
resulting in an attempted acquisition of Venus with an FGS (ref:
Goodrich Memo A16-ST-2254)
• Goodrich reports the short-term effect of the Venus acquisition would be
the temporary incapacitation of the PMTs due to dark count elevation.
While the exact value is not available for the given intensity, literature
quotes range from several to 48 hours for recovery (for any target).
• Goodrich performed a relative assessment of the long-term effects of
Coulomb draw (charge depletion) while attempting to acquire Venus
with an FGS. While it is hard to determine exactly how the FGS would
behave if it attempted to perform an acquisition on Venus, depending on
how long it spends with Venus in the FOV, you could see a decrease in
reliability from 1-3%.
• Response
• If SEs determine that there is a large attitude error, Software Sunpoint
may be commanded via COP 6.01

2010/2011 Venus Observation
6.0 Contingency Planning
6.1 Vehicle Contingencies
• Code Red GSFC Inclement Weather Situation
• Venus observation will be executed from SMS
• If potential weather situation is predicted, an early execution of the
configuration macro will be performed during good weather
• If sudden storm occurs, SEs will make best effort to support from SMOR or
via phone
