Systems, methods, and apparatus for magnetic maneuvering for satellites are disclosed. In one or more embodiments, a method for maneuvering satellites comprises applying, by a current source in a first satellite, current to an electromagnet in the first satellite. The method further comprises generating, by the electromagnet in the first satellite in response to the current, a magnetic field. Further, the method comprises maneuvering, by the first satellite, a second satellite via the magnetic field. In one or more embodiments, the electromagnet comprises a torque rod, an electric motor coil, and/or a solar array. In one or more embodiments, the second satellite comprises a ferromagnetic or ferrimagnetic material, a conductive material, or a combination thereof. In some embodiments, the second satellite comprises an electromagnet.
