Some technological aspects of operation with uncooperative objects
Abstract
Attention is given to aspects of operation with 'uncooperative' space vehicles, i.e., those which do not respond to commands due to malfunction or failure. The main 'technological' operations (i.e., gripping, moving, disassembly) that must be carried out in order to return such vehicles to the earth are outlined.
