Question
Consider a satellite moving in a torque-free environment. The inertial frame and satellite body-fixed frame
are represented by N-frame and B-frame, where {^₁, ñ2, ñ3} and {b₁, 62, 63} are right-handed vector bases
fixed in N-frame and B-frame, respectively. {b} is aligned with the principal axis of inertia, where 6₁ and
63 are associated with the minimum and maximum moments of inertia, respectively.
Denote the satellite angular velocity by w = wibį and the inertia tensor about the CoM by Ie. Suppose
that I at time t = 0 is given by:
Ic(t = 0) = 2ñ₁ñ₁ +2.25 ñ₂n₂ +2.25 ñ3ñ3 -0.75 n₂n3 -0.75 n3n2 (dimensionless)
(a): First, let us characterize the inertia property of the satellite from the given information.
(a.1):
Express the satellite inertia tensor about the CoM in B-frame. Sketch the inertia ellipsoid of
this body with B-frame.
