Researchers simplified the analytical expression of the line of sight (LOS) error, discovered and proved the independence of Euler angle Psi, calculated attitude angles corresponding to 0 degrees and 20 degrees LOS errors, determined choices of initial alignment, tailored the slew maneuvers for LOS pointing, simulated numerically the LOS pointing slew of the Spacecraft Control Laboratory Experiment (SCOLE), and evaluated the pointing performance.
