Scientific paper

Remote ground control of Soviet manned and unmanned spacecraft is discussed. It is pointed out that, while this equipment was originally applied to unmanned Progress supply craft, Star class space tugs, and test vehicles, these techniques are now being used to control both the flight envelope of the Mir/Kvant space complex and its internal equipment. Use of remote control to solve pointing problems aboard a manned craft is illustrated and details involved in recognizing the remote control signal are presented. The Mir spacecraft broadcasts a spread spectrum signal on or about 66.130 MHz and actual center frequency depends on Doppler shift and which ground control station or communications ship is involved. A 60-day calendar of remote control signals is presented for December 1987 to January 1988.
