POINTS (Precision Optical INTerferometry in Space) is a design concept for an astrometric interferometer originally conceived as a means of performing the light deflection experiment to second order. A version with 2 m baselines, Mini-POINTS, would fit fully assembled with a support spacecraft in one-third of the Shuttle bay. For a pair of tenth-magnitude stars about 90° apart, Mini-POINTS would yield the separation uncertain by 5 μas after a 15-minute observation. The author considers both the design of the instrument and aspects of a mission.
