COMMENTS:        SWIFT SC Slew decision.  
COMMENTS:        SC will NOT slew immediately to this target; Earth_limb constraint.  
COMMENTS:        There maybe a delayed slew or no slew at all; see WAIT_TIME.  
COMMENTS:        This does not match any source in the ground catalog.  
COMMENTS:        There is a bright star (mag=5.06) 9.81 arcmin from this position.
