Summary The objective of this research is to support the spacecraft dynamics and control modeling, simulation efforts of AFRL/RVES. The research focuses on the continued development of simulation test-beds to assess and evaluate autonomous guidance, navigation and control algorithms for spacecraft autonomous proximity maneuvering and attitude control. In-house developed algorithms will be studied extensively through numerical simulations and experiments on the Spacecraft Robotics Laboratory flat floor and the CubeSat Three Axis Simulator.
