Abstract Hovering can generally be defined as maintaining a constant position with respect to a target in space. To achieve hovering, a spacecraft thrusts continuously to induce an equilibrium state at a desired position. Due to the constraints on the quantity of propellant onboard, long-time hovering around low-Earth orbits (LEOs) is hardly achievable using traditional chemical propulsion.
