Figure 10. The circles show the thermal defocus corrections that were observed on August 15, 2000. These data were derived by combining the defocus measurements seen in Figure 6 with the thermal measurements of the truss seen in Figure 7. ... I then fit the thermal defocus data given by the circles above using only the thermal time constant and an arbitrary "zero-point" constant as fit parameters. ... M1 corresponds to a thermal time constant of 0.37 hours (22 minutes) for the rods. ...
