The derivation of earth relative motion (or 'smear rate') in a step-stare spaceborn optical system is presented. Suggested methods of compensating for the smear by focal-plane manipulation are also given. The simulation results of smearing for a 4-hour orbit optical system operating in a step-stare mode (above 45 deg North Latitude) are provided.
