NASA/Ames has developed a command system to control the attitude of a rocket payload from a ground-based site. The SPARCS command system allows a ground-based operator to adjust the attitude of a solar experiment in real time. The attitude relative to the desired target features on the sun is monitored visually from the ground through a video link using an on-board TV camera. The system has demonstrated rapid acquisition of solar features, resulting in a more optimal usage of the data gathering time of a sounding rocket payload, and has located solar features which could not be precisely located from preflight data.
