With its 1 m aperture, the Sunrise Balloon-Borne Stratospheric Solar Observatory was the largest spacebased solar telescope. It was designed to study the magneto-convective processes of the sun at resolutions higher than 100 km and the payload took data during a°ight from June 12 to June 17, 2013. To achieve its science requirements, the telescope had to point to an accuracy of 26 00 for extended periods of time. Pointing of the instrument was e®ected by the Sunrise Pointing System (PS). The PS used measurements provided by a Lockheed Intermediate Sun Sensor (LISS) and passed the data through a cascade of up to four digital lters to calculate the best voltages to drive the azimuthal and elevation motors. All¯lter settings could be modi¯ed in°ight to adapt to changing conditions. Using this design, the PS met its requirements, pointing the instrument with an accuracy better than 26 00 for 60% of the°ight and for continuous time periods of up to 99 min. In this paper, we detail the design and performance of the PS during the 2013°ight.
