| Description | The dynamic response to operational maneuvers of spinning symmetric spacecraft with radial and axial booms was analyzed as part of the prelaunch dynamic analysis of the ISEE-3 spacecraft placed in a halo orbit around an Earth-Sun libration point, and later renamed ICE when it was directed to fly-by comet Giacobini-Zinner. The results presented use simple spacecraft models, and frequently give predictions that are good and easily obtained when the results from using a general purpose multibody dynamics program were very time consuming to obtain. Deployment of radial booms, spin-up after partial deployment, stationkeeping, and trajectory changes are analyzed. The latter two can involve both axial thrusting and pulsed radial thrusting once per revolution. |
