Abstract
A satellite comprising a deployable solar generator that can be oriented relative to the satellite body is kept facing the sun at all times. It includes an attitude stabilization device comprising a superconductive material closed loop carried by a support coupled to the solar generator and disposed on a side of the support facing substantailly away from the sun. A secondary loop parallel to the closed loop is substantially the same shape and size as the closed loop, and is carried by the support near the loop. A resistive circuit is carried by the support near at least part of the closed loop. A selective electrical power supply circuit is connected electrically to the secondary loop and to the resistive circuit.
