Three-Axis Attitude Control for Solar-Powered Electric Propulsion Spacecraft

SAE Technical Paper Series, 1974
Spacecraft utilizing solar electric propulsion (SEP) for certain long-term interplanetary missions will depend on large, flexible solar arrays. The resulting spacecraft configurations present some complex flight control problems. Questions regarding a general design approach are discussed along with options for three-axis control forces, tradeoffs for

Application of Nuclear Electric Propulsion to Unmanned Scientific Probe Missions   Presented as Preprint 64-714 at the Third Biennial Aerospace Power Systems Conference, Philadelphia, Pa., September 1-4, 1964. This paper presents results of mission studies carried out under contract NAS 3-2533, Research on Spacecraft and Powerplant Integration Problems.

1966
Abstract Advanced scientific missions throughout the solar system are analyzed to determine payload and velocity requirements for nuclear-electric propelled spacecraft. Emphasis is placed upon those missions that are too difficult for all-chemical propulsion, even with boosters as large as Saturn V.
