Abstract

Recently, space science and engineering advanced new problem before theoreticalmechanics and motion control theory: a spacecraft directed respinup by the weakrestricted control internal forces. The paper presents some results on this problem,which is very actual for energy supply of the communication mini-satellites with plasma thrusters at initial mission modes.
