The ISS attitude will vary between +15 degrees and -15 degrees for each roll and yaw axis of LVLH [Local Vertical/Local Horizontal] and between +15 degrees to -20 degrees for the pitch axis ... At any point on the ISS non-articulated portion, which means the portion excluding rotating elements such as photovoltaic arrays and Thermal Control System (TCS) radiators, the ISS will provide estimates of the ISS LVLH attitude to an accuracy of 3 degrees per axis (3 sigma) and inertial rates to an accuracy of 0.01 degrees per second per axis (3 sigma). When controlling to the TEA [Torque Equilibrium Attitude] with non-propulsive effectors, the ISS will maintain attitude stability to 3.5 degrees per axis per orbit.  2, record 1, English, - ISS%20attitude

The description of the Station's flight attitude (orientation relative to the plane of its orbit) is referenced to local-vertical/local-horizontal (LVLH) axes that are fixed with respect to the Station's near-circular orbit (i.e., not to the physical Station). The LVLH origin is at the Station's center-of-mass; the z-axis points radially toward the Earth's center (or toward the nadir direction), the x-axis points along the orbital velocity vector (the ram direction, with wake being opposite), and the y-axis completes the right-handed triad. The flight attitude of the Station is then described using a second, Station-fixed, coordinate system whose orientation relative to LVLH is specified using the Eulerian angles of yaw, pitch and roll. Several Station-fixed coordination systems are defined. The most widely used is the Space Station Reference Coordinate System, ... in thich the positive x-axis points along the axis of the U.S. lab away from the Zarya and Service Modules; the positive y-axis points starboard along the main truss, and positive z completes a right-handed coordinate system.  2, record 2, English, - Station%27s%20flight%20attitude
