Scientific paper

A detailed review of the in-flight calibration of the Hubble Space Telescope attitude sensors is given. The review, which covers the period from the April 24, 1990 launch of the spacecraft until April 1991, describes the calibrations required and accuracies achieved for the four principal attitude sensing systems on the spacecraft: the magnetometers, the fixed-head star trackers, the gyroscopes, and the fine guidance sensors.
