A study was conducted to investigate the space tug automatic docking control capabilities. The subjects considered are: (1) docking sensor requirements, (2) the influence of the docking mechanism, and (3) the implications and effects of a docking abort. A digital computer simulation, was developed which included the primary aspects of the docking maneuver.
