Scientific paper

In this paper a survey is made of some aspects of satellite attitude stabilization and control. After a brief discussion of the equations of motion governing the satellite's behaviour, the various disturbing torques acting on a satellite in a space environment are considered. Quantitative values for a hypothetical satellite are discussed. Next, attention is given to several methods of attitude stabilization and control. The analysis is based on the various means to exert torques on the satellite for control purposes. Passive methods, such as spin-stabilization and gravity-gradient stabilization, are discussed in some detail. Not only are the basic principles involved indicated, but also some quantitative values of the variables concerned are mentioned where possible.
