Topics are presented in the field of flexible spacecraft configurations. Dynamic models are reviewed for spinning and non-spinning satellites. The attitude stability of flexible satellites is discussed. Applications are described of modern control theory and the design of control systems for these configurations is outlined. Test and flight verifications are reported, and some special dynamics problems are dealt with.
