Report discusses formulation of algorithm used in pointing proposed Space Infrared Telescope Facility at various celestial objects. Control system of telescope required to aim and keep telescope aimed within 0.15 arc second of intended target. In addition, required to perform 120 degree slews in 8 min and 7.5-arc-minute nods (nod is small-angle slew) within 20 s. Study concentrates on nod maneuver.
