Abstract

The task of forming a tether group of nano-satellites in a circular orbit near the Earth is considered. The tether system consists of the basic spacecraft and several nanosatellites. Nominal programs for the deployment of the tether system in the vertical position according to the simplified equations of motion are constructed.The feasibility of the obtained programs for the development of the tether system for a more complex model of motion is confirmed. Example of forming a tether system consisting of the basic spacecraft and ten nano-satellites is provided.
