This paper presents a new fuzzy logic system that decouples the measured Earth's magnetic field problem from the control analysis. The fuzzy logic takes care of the coupling between the magnetic field lines so that a classical controller is used to d

Efforts are continuing under NASA support to improve the readiness level of solar sail technology. Solar sails have one of the best chances to be the next gossamer spacecraft flown in space. In the gossamer spacecraft community thus far, solar sails
