Scientific paper

An attitude control system of a balloon-borne gondola for infrared astronomical observations has been developed by using a reaction wheel-based toquer in conjunction with the twist-rewinding subsystem. The behavior of the coupled system is studied through numerical simulations. In actual balloon experiments the system has proved fine in-flight stability better than one arcmin throughout various observational modes such as pointing and scanning.
