Abstract The results of the reconstruction of uncontrolled attitude motion of the satellite Aist during its flight in May 2013 are presented. The reconstruction was performed by the processing of data from onboard measurements of the Earth’s magnetic field. The processing technique was applied to data segments covering time intervals of about 100 min. The data obtained at each such interval were processed jointly using the least squares method by integrating the equations of the satellite motion relative to its center of mass. When processing, the initial conditions of motion and parameters of the used mathematical model were estimated. The results of processing several data intervals made it possible to obtain sufficiently complete information about the motion of the satellite.
