Operational aspects of detumbling or despinning a large passive vehicle during a rescue mission are discussed. Techniques and devices for carrying out these operations are described, and some specific examples are cited which represent realistic estimates of future rescue situations. Torque could be applied from outside, or built-in autonomous devices could be used.
