The role of the control system in large space structure design is examined. It is pointed out that control and dynamics aspects of the structure must be considered very early in the design. Innovative techniques will be needed, such as on-orbit dynamic testing, offsetting of disturbance torques, and advances in the analysis area, particularly with respect to system modeling and achieving a tractable dimension of the problem. The technology pursued, while necessarily being focused, must not be too narrow, but should be concerned with the multidisciplinary aspects of large space structures.
