I have a question about rotation or orients - how close to the edge can my primary target be before it risks being unobserved by some unknown orient?

The Fundamental Plane of Ultra-Massive Galaxies at z~2
The fundamental plane (FP), relating the effective radius, velocity dispersion, and surface brightness is a unique tool for studying the structural, stellar, and dark matter evolution of early-type galaxies, and can reveal how these galaxies have formed and evolved. Thus far, studies have been mostly limited to z<1.3, beyond which the absorption lines used to derive velocity dispersions are redshifted out of the optical. With the advent of sensitive NIR spectrographs on 8m telescopes, it is now possible for the first time to study the FP directly at the epoch (z~2), where lower redshift studies predict it to have formed. Through a large investment of time with the 8m - VLT NIR spectrograph X-SHOOTER, we have derived velocity dispersions for a unique sample of 11 quiescent galaxies at z=2, tripling the number of galaxies with such measurements. We propose to obtain WFC3/IR imaging of these galaxies, which when combined with our ground-based spectroscopy, will allow us to measure accurately the fundamental plane at z~2 for the first time through accurate sizes derived from surface brightness profile fits to the data. This measurement of the FP will further reveal the time-scales and methods of formation for the most massive early type galaxies. The HST observations will also allow us to measure the structures of these galaxies, to search for any extended envelopes or asymmetries, and to examine the properties of their satellite galaxies. Three of our systems also show hints of having close companions through our spectroscopy and WFC3/IR imaging is required to investigate this further.
This is an 11 orbit WFC3 IR program to obtain 1 orbit imaging of massive galaxies at z~2. The observations are straightforward. They involve pointing to each of the 11 targets and then executing the WFC3 obesrvations for one orbit per pointing. The imaing filter is F160W. We use dithering patterns to obtain an optimal image quality.
