The Star Tracker is the eyes of the system and the primary external attitude reference for most systems. The Terran Star Trackers use a combination of algorithms in order to detect star fields, select the proper exposure for imaging, and provide the spacecraft with an absolute pointing reference. Multiple star Trackers in different orientations can be combined to provide even better pointing performance.
