Abstract This paper investigates the attitude coordination control issue for spacecraft formation flying in the presence of actuator saturation and external disturbances with unknown boundaries. Firstly, a super-twisting integral terminal sliding mode surface is developed, which ensures that the sliding mode surface and its first-time derivative converge to zero in finite time. Then, based on the developed sliding mode surface and adaptive technique, a robust anti-saturation distributed attitude coordination controller that enables the attitude and angular velocity to precisely track the desired time-varying command in finite time is devised under the undirected communication topology. Finally, stability analysis and numerical simulations validate the effectiveness and feasibility of the devised control approach.
