Orbital Mechanics: For Engineering Students
By Howard D CurtisAn obvious alternative to the coning maneuver is to use thrusters RCS-3 and 4 to despin the craft completely, thrusters RCS-5 and 6 to initiate roll around the y axis and stop it after 90◦, and then RCS-3 and 4 to respin the spacecraft ...
