The Annular Suspension and Pointing System (ASPS) is a general purpose mount designed to provide orientation, mechanical isolation, and fine pointing for space experiments. The ASPS consists of two assemblies, the first being a set of two gimbals attached to a carrier spacecraft (e.g., Space Shuttle) and providing coarse pointing, and the second a magnetic vernier pointing and isolation assembly attached to the inner gimbal of the first assembly and providing fine pointing. Discussion of the evolution of this concept, required related technology, and data from analyses and simulations predicting pointing accuracies that allowed the specification of hardware design requirements is presented.
