Abstract:
In the world of educational satellites, student teams manually conduct operations daily, sending commands and collecting downlinked data. Educational satellites typically travel in a Low Earth Orbit allowing line of sight communication for approximately thirty minutes each day. This is manageable for student teams as the required manpower is minimal. The international Global Educational Network for Satellite Operations (GENSO), however, promises satellite contact upwards of sixteen hours per day by connecting earth stations all over the world through the Internet. This dramatic increase in

Abstract:
This thesis considers two systems: a dumb-bell satellite which is a system of two point masses connected by a massless rigid rod, and a gyrostat consisting of a dumbbell satellite with a gyroscope attached. Stability of relative equilibria of the dumbbell satellite in two dimensions is studied, where two types of relative equilibrium are obtained, which correspond to two orientations: radial and tangential. The only relative equilibrium which is found to be stable is the radial position, and this stability is only satisfied when the length of the dumb-bell satellite is smaller than the radius

Similar to CubeSat platforms, it opens perspectives for a cheaper and faster satellite deployment by means of modularization and standardization of future satellite systems. The proposed design is
