Abstract: A large, segmented space telescope requires high precision and accuracy in its mirror shape to obtain clear images. The Structures, Propulsion, and Control Engineering (SPACE) telescope testbed at the NASA sponsored University Research Center of excellence must maintain a pointing control accuracy of 2 arc seconds. A Peripheral Pointing Architecture (PPA) has been designed to demonstrate the Testbed’s pointing accuracy. A Finite Element Analysis (FEA) model of the PPA is developed. Normal mode analysis is performed to establish the PPA’s natural frequencies, mode shapes, and the mass and stiffness matrices. Utilizing the H-infinity controllers developed to achieve figure maintenance, the pointing control of the Testbed structure is achieved.
