Very low Earth orbits (VLEO), typically classified as orbits below approximately 450 km in
altitude, have the potential to provide significant benefits to spacecraft over those that …

The motion of aerodynamically stabilized nanosatellites of the CubeSat design is studied.
The features of the nanosatellites behavior in low orbits are conditioned both by the …

Disturbance torques, such as atmospheric drag torque and gravity gradient torque, have
always been an issue in attitude control for satellites in low Earth orbit. Although attitude …

CubeSats, and small satellites in general, being small and relatively light, are sensitive to
disturbance torques in the orbital environment. We developed a simulation tool that includes …

Probabilistic study of angular motion dynamics has been performed for CubeSat
nanosatellites with passive stabilization systems, including aerodynamic, aerodynamic …

Compact tether-based actuation is a suitable approach for the deployment of
femto/picosatellite bodies from CubeSats using ultrasmall electrodynamic tethers for fuel …

The paper deals with the attitude dynamics of CubeSats with flexible stabilizing panels in
free molecular flow taking into account the aerodynamic damping. In addition to the …

This paper deals with the attitude motion of LEO satellites with deployable side panels
designed for passive aerodynamic stabilization in a rarefied atmosphere. The influence of …

ALE project is a micro-satellite project with the mission objective of artificial generation of a
shooting star. The first satellite of this project (ALE-1) is launched in January of 2019 at an …
