    abstract

    This paper outlines the plan of flight experiment of flexible spacecraft ETS-VI to be launched in 1992. The experiment will be conducted to demonstrate the capability of the attitude and flexible vibration control and the identification algorithm of a class of spacecraft which has flexible appendages. The expected results could serve as a base-line of a wider class of future LSS( Large Space Structures ) modeling/control technology.
