An account is given of the design features and performance characteristics of the Rate Gyro Assembly employed by the Hubble Space Telescope's Pointing Control System to effect accurate spacecraft maneuvers and support fine pointing telescope operation, in conjunction with the fine guidance sensors. The rate sensor attitude quantization is 0.00025 arcsec. Fine-pointing stability is the driver for gyro noise performance, while spacecraft-pointing accuracy requirements at the end of maneuvers has driven the gyro scale factor and mechanical alignment stability performance.
