    Noted Issue Description
    Spacecraft pointing: The pointing in Sector 76 was set at +83.5 degrees in ecliptic latitude so that Camera 3 points near the North Ecliptic Pole. Camera 4 was used for guiding in both orbits.
    Scattered light: In Sector 76, the Earth introduces scattered light signals in the beginning of Orbit 159a and 160a, and the Moon impacts Camera 1 near the middle of Orbit 160b.
