Lunar Attitude Control is a space subsystem that keeps a spacecraft pointed correctly for power, thermal safety, communication, or science for Moon surface and cislunar mission operations. It uses sensors, reaction wheels, thrusters, and control laws so teams can maintain pointing without exceeding constraints while keeping evidence, reliability, and public-safe operational boundaries clear.
“The mission team used Lunar Attitude Control when the lander crossed into a polar shadow region, so the team could maintain pointing without exceeding constraints before the next mission decision point.”
