After each reconfiguration a pointing solution is determined at night
when the thermal effects are least; typically with rms errors of
5-10". This global model solution degrades with time;
rms errors of 20-30" are typically measured, although absolute errors of
up to 60" have been seen.
For pointing critical experiments, see the section on reference
pointing.
