Abstract

On-orbit manual attitude control of manned spacecraft is accomplished using external visual references. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) spacecraft permit an aircraft windshield type 'front view', wherein an arc of the Earth's horizon is visible to the crew in de-orbit attitude. Russian and Chinese spacecraft permit the crew a 'bottom view' wherein the entire circular Earth horizon disk is visible to the crew in de-orbit attitude. Our study compared these two types of external views for efficiency in achievement of de-orbit attitude. Results from our study can be used for design of manual on-orbit attitude control of manned spacecrafts. © 2024 IEEE.
