Book Description
This supplement updates the information in the original book and covers servicing events from early 1993 to 1998. The major emphasis is on the space systems servicing tools and techniques developed and demonstrated on Shuttle missions. Special attention is focused on the strategy of rendezvous and docking manoeuvres of the Shuttle with other orbiting spacecraft. This volume also includes a subsection on proximity operations by Hans F. Meissinger.

Attitude Takeover Control of Failed Spacecraft
Author: Panfeng Huang
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 0443247455
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 494
Book Description
Attitude Takeover Control of Failed Spacecraft is both necessary and urgently required. This book provides an overview of the topic and the role of space robots in handling various types of failed spacecraft. The book divides the means of attitude takeover control into three types, including space manipulator capture, tethered space robot capture, and cellular space robot capture. Spacecraft attitude control is the process of controlling the orientation of a spacecraft (vehicle or satellite) with respect to an inertial frame of reference or another entity such as the celestial sphere, certain fields, and nearby objects, etc. It has become increasingly important: with the increasing number of human space launch activities, the number of failed spacecraft has increased dramatically in recent years. Proposes a means of attitude takeover control of failed spacecraft Provides a comprehensive overview of current attitude takeover control technologies of space robots Covers space manipulator capture, tethered space robot capture, and cellular space robot capture

On-Orbit Servicing: Next Generation of Space Activities
Author: Annette Froehlich
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 9783030515614
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 169
Book Description
This book shares a range of new and diverse insights on On-Orbit Servicing (OOS), and examines its implications especially from political, legal, economic, and security perspectives. OSS has been evolving rapidly and presents both challenges and opportunities, such as in-space repairs, refuelling, refurbishment of spacecraft and servicing satellites, which could play a critical role in extending satellite lifecycles, while also representing a valuable next step in debris mitigation. At the same time, many legal questions have arisen in connection with OOS: the need to prevent hostile actions under the pretext of OSS; the distinction between governmental and non-governmental OOS operators; the status of re-worked and recycled space objects; the issue of control in terms of operations performed in orbit, i.e., in the international sphere; the status of objects manufactured in orbit and applicable law, including liability and registration; and the impacts on insurance law and risk management. Finally, the book examines the implications of OOS for emerging space actors in the Global South, and recommends a paradigm shift to help developing countries fully recognise the necessity and urgency of being involved in discussions on OSS, as opposed to leaving it up to the developed space actors. This book will be of great interest to practitioners, academics, and students working in the space sector and related fields.
