The application of a single movable mass to generate control torques for the attitude control of space vehicles is discussed. The feasibility of a movable mass control in stabilizing a cable-connected, artificial gravity configuration is proposed. A dynamic model for cable-connected configurations to account for the aggregate motion of the space station and relative torsional motion between the crew quarters and counter weight is developed.
