The alignment of the faint object camera channel of the corrective optics space telescope axial replacement (COSTAR) is described and compared to the alignment plan that had been devised some months before. Images showing the appearance of the point-spread function during the course of the alignment process are presented, and the ultimate imaging performance detailed. A science image of a rich star field shows off the performance improvement over the uncorrected telescope.
