While primarily designed for radar studies of the Venus surface, the high effective isotropic radiated power (EIRP) from the Magellan spacecraft makes it an ideal transmitter for use in radio occultation measurements of the refractivity and absorptivity of the Venus atmosphere. Such experiments have
This paper deals with chaotic attitude motion of a magnetic rigid spacecraft in a circular orbit near the equatorial plane of the earth. The dynamical model of the problem is derived. The Melnikov analysis is carried out to prove the existence of a complicated nonwandering Cantor set. The dynamical
