Abstract
A pair of reaction motors or thrusters connected to spin-stabilized spacecraft are used to reorient spacecraft attitude without affecting spacecraft velocity. The spacecraft reaction motors are arranged to produce a couple in response to an attitude reference signal without applying a spacecraft velocity changing force to the spin-stabilized spacecraft.
