TSIS-1 Pointing System Performance after 5 Years on ISS

The Total and Spectral Solar Irradiance Sensor-1 (TSIS-1) was installed on the ISS in December 2017, completed its prime 5-year mission in 2023, and is now in extended operations. Within the first year of operations, the paper titled, "Challenges and Solutions for Precision Solar Pointing on the ISS for the TSIS Instrument" was presented at the 2019 IEEE Aerospace Conference. This paper described challenges associated with ISS jitter and structural obscuration along with on-orbit measurements of these phenomenon and how TSIS-1 initially performed in their presence.Since the paper was presented in 2019, TSIS-1 has continued to operate with much success. This paper will provide a 5-year update on the performance of the TSIS-1 pointing system, including additional measurements of ISS base motion jitter, updated ISS obscuration information, data trends that showed slight increases in azimuth motor torque and pointing errors, and a pointing anomaly due to contamination on one of the pointing system sun sensors. These results may help other payload developers better understand the ISS environment and long-term mechanism performance.
