Putting a bright star in the gap between the two WFC chips:
Is it OK to put a bright star in the gap between the two WFC chips?

Reply
We have mapped only one location for anomalous reflection
effects and saw only very low level reflection effects similar to those seen
everywhere on the chip. However, since the gap has not been fully mapped
during ground cal. along its full extent we cannot guarantee that problems
might not arise.
