Abstract Most people who have had even the most casual contact with spacecraft (no, not a Close Encounter of the First Kind) have heard the term “orbit” used and have at least a rough idea of what the word means. By contrast, the first time you hear the phrase “attitude determination” or “attitude control” a whole host of rather exotic images may cross your mind, for example Michael Caine’s portrayal of Harry Palmer in the movie The Ipcress File. In some respects, these impressions are not totally far-fetched, and there are some similarities between psychiatry and spacecraft attitude control. Although the field of psychoanalysis is possessed of a rich literature documenting its knowledge and a host of psychoanalytical techniques for analyzing a subject have been established, it is difficult even for a talented psychiatrist to determine in the short-term a subject’s state of mind.
