Simulator Facility for Attitude Control and Energy Storage of Spacecraft

Abstract

This report concerns a designed and built experimental facility that will allow the conduction of experiments for validating advanced attitude control algorithms for spacecraft in a weightless environment. The acquired equipment and software will greatly enhance the capabilities of the School of Aerospace Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology for spacecraft-related research and education.
