Product Description:
From its roots in classical mechanics and reliance on stability theory to the evolution of practical stabilization ideas, this volume covers environmental torques encountered in space; energy dissipation; motion equations for four archetypical systems; orientation parameters; illustrations of key concepts with on-orbit flight data; and typical engineering hardware. 1986 edition.

This book is a really nice tool for those who are learning about spacecraft attitude dynamics

This is an excellent book and the Bible for spacecraft attitude dynamics. The book uses the so-called vectrices to represent reference frames. After getting used to the notation, it is very convenient tool for book keeping multiple reference frames. Although the idea is not original and appears in Wittenburg's Dynamics of System of Rigid Bodies, the author shows many nice and helpful relations in vectices algebra and uses it elegantly to derive equations of motion. In addition to the comprehensive ... Read More

Often ignored, the ability to control just where a spacecraft is pointed is absolutely critical to space flight. Without such controls, the Hubble telescope doesn't point in the right direction. The spy satellites don't point at the ground and the re-entry rockets don't point you in the right direction to come home.
The first Explorer and Sputnik experiences proved that what we thought we knew about the classical analysis of Newton and others were wrong, or at least incomplete. The realities ... Read More
