A study of the interface problems between the Space Station Structure (vibrations) and the Payload Pointing Control System was undertaken. A major goal of the study was to identify any bounding factors that might limit the achievement of required pointing accuracies. A major result is that the space station will have a disturbance-rich environment and the background levels will be large enough to impact the pointing of some of the payloads. The need for an interface vibration specification between the structure and the payloads was identified.
