Centroid shifts relative to the median value of either rolls in x- and y-directions. The telescope maintained extremely precise pointing (σ ∼ 0.01 pixels in F210M, 0.3 mas) during the observations. A pointing jump occurred at 1.55 hr after the start of the first science integration due to a mirror tilt event then.
