Scientific paper

Knowing the location of the science instrument apertures within the HST focal plane to within Guidestar Catalog 2 errors (0.25 arcsec) is valuable for two primary reasons. 1.) It improves pointing and makes target acquisitions more expeditious for a small aperture instrument like COS, and 2.) It improves the astrometry metadata which aids in archival and multi-mission object matching.
