    Sector Notes

    Noted Issue Description
    Spacecraft pointing: The pointing in Sector 74 was set at +83.5 degrees in ecliptic latitude so that Camera 3 points near the North Ecliptic Pole. Camera 4 was used for guiding in Orbits 155a and 156a. Cameras 1 and 4 were used in Orbits 155b and 156b.
    Scattered light: In Sector 74, the Earth introduces scattered light signals at the beginning of each orbit, and the Moon impacts Camera 1 near the beginning of Orbit 156.
