Four basic categories of spacecraft pointing and control systems are discussed: (1) spin stabilized, (2) dual spin, (3) three-axis, and (4) momentum bias. Goals, mission requirements, and payloads should be considered for selection of control systems. A set of representative requirements, including life and environmental, vehicle/payload orientation and accuracy requirements, and control-system operational and functional requirements are discussed. Attention is given to design constraints imposed by the system selection. It is noted that sensitivity of any system design to increasing accuracy and flexibility in science-mission reprogramming will be major cost factors.
