SIM-Lite Instrument Description, Operation and Performance • SIM Lite would search about 60-100 nearby Sun-like stars for planets of mass down to one Earth mass, in the Habitable Zone. • SIM-Lite will also perform global astrometry on a variety of astrophysics objects, reaching 4 μas absolute position and parallax measurement accuracy on objects brighter than 16th visual magnitude and 10 μas at magnitude 20. • The instrument consists of: • A 6m Optical Michelson stellar interferometer • A 4.2m “Guide” Michelson stellar interferometer • A 30cm “Guide” Telescope. • The first interferometer chopsbetween the target star and a set of reference stars. • The second interferometer monitors the attitude of the instrument in the direction of the target star. • The telescope monitors the attitude of the instrument in the other two directions.
