The PDS for space telescope guide star selection system: Status and improvementsPointing the ST (Space Telescope) requires that the onboard guidance system be provided with the coordinates and magnitudes of at least two guide stars for each observation region. The accuracy and limitations of the model 2020G PDS microdensitometer are assessed in view of the guide star requirements of the space telescope. Modifications of the PDS to correct for measuring errors are reviewed.
