Scientific paper

This report describes the acquisition of bright targets for NICMOS coronagraphic observations. A variation of the Reuse Target Offset (RTO) capability was used to position a target into the coronagraphic hole. A total of 30 NICMOS Mode-1 Acquisitions have been performed with 7 failures. Three failures resulted from Phase II errors and four failures resulted from guide star problems. A failure was declared when the target was not positioned into the coronagraphic hole for the science observations.
