Scientific paper

Following its insertion in the HST observatory, we performed a series of measurements, repointings and mechanism adjustments to bring the COS into optical alignment with the telescope and center the NUV channel images and spectra on the detector. We describe the observations, data analysis techniques, coordinate systems and scale factors used for the alignment process. After alignment, the NUV on-orbit optical performance fully meets specifications and expectations.
