  • Abstract
    This paper presents an effective control scheme for spacecraft formations. Modifying earlier established control design techniques, feedback laws are constructed to control translational and rotational motion of a group of spacecraft. Computer simulations are carried out to illustrate the effectiveness of the control laws. The ephemeris and attitude data generated through the simulations are used to create 3D visualizations.
