A study was conducted to define the logic associated with the control moment gyroscopes to maneuver and stabilize an orbiting spacecraft. The study objectives are as follows: (1) to define mission requirements and feasible attitudes for a shuttle-like vehicle that will meet mission objectives, (2) to determine the control moment gyroscope (CMG) and system configurations that will best meet overall mission requirements, (3) to define all of the software required to manage and control the selected CMG systems, and (4) to verify by computer simulation the adequacy of the selected CMG system and specified software package in meeting the overall mission requirements.
