METHOD FOR PERFORMING POSTURE CONTROL OF A SPACECRAFT AND ITS ORBIT CONTROL BY ROTATING SEVERAL MAGNETS INDIVIDUALLY IN OPTIONAL DIRECTION

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To resolve some problems found in a posture control of the prior art spacecraft through permanent magnets that has been passive for stabilizing it and the spacecraft machine could not be faced to its optional direction, the prior art orbit control using permanent magnets fixed to three shafts showed a default that only a torque substantially corresponding to one axis electromagnet could be attained and showed a small value and superconducting magnet showed a hard adjustment against its magnetic force and controlling operation with propellant showed a low accuracy and showed a certain limitation for its mounting amount.SOLUTION: In order to establish the prescribed object, this invention provides a method for performing a posture control and an orbit control for a spacecraft by rotating a plurality of magnets individually in an optional direction.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3
