This article proposed an extended state observer (ESO)–based output feedback control scheme for rigid spacecraft pose tracking without velocity feedback, which accounts for inertial uncertainties, external disturbances, and control input constraints. In this research, the 6-DOF tracking error dynamics is described by the exponential coordinates on SE(3). A novel continuous finite-time ESO is proposed to estimate the velocity information and the compound disturbance, and the estimations are utilized in the control law design. The ESO ensures a finite-time uniform ultimately bounded stability of the observation states, which is proved utilizing the homogeneity method. A non-singular finite-time terminal sliding mode controller based on super-twisting technology is proposed, which would drive spacecraft tracking the desired states. The other two observer-based controllers are also proposed for comparison. The superiorities of the proposed control scheme are demonstrated by theory analyses and numerical simulations.
