Ground-based testbeds have been used since the beginning of space exploration for both hardware and software validation. In this paper we describe the innovative aspects of the attitude module of a cooperating spacecraft testbed under development at the University of Padova. We also present and discuss experimental results of specific attitude control maneuvers carried out using optimal control techniques.
