Zusammenfassung:The Attitude and Orbit Control System (AOCS) plays an essential role in the flight control of a spacecraft. This system usually contains a minimum of three reaction wheels (often 4-5 wheels are used for optimization and redundancy). By accelerating the appropriate wheels, the system can produce a zero-mean reaction torque about any axis to the spacecraft, which enables the spacecraft to maneuver on orbit. Meanwhile, the momentum generated by acceleration can be stored in the wheels.
