Planning and scheduling for the Space Telescope astronomy mission involves a combination of concerns regarding orbital environment constraints and spacecraft operational characteristics. In many cases proper selection or sequencing of observations can minimize the impact of disadvantageous orbital geometry with respect to targets of interest or of repeatedly encountered environmental factors such as spacecraft passages through high radiant regions on the earth's upper atmosphere. An overview is presented of the characteristics of viewing celestial targets from low earth orbit and the principal effects and operational considerations which constrain or restrict the scheduling of observations of them.
