Orbital Maneuvering System Design and Performance for the Magnetosperic Multiscale FormationOnce in science mission orbits, the four 0.12-km diameter observatories plan to form a tetrahedron with as little as 4-km of separation between spacecraft. The stated operational goal of maneuvering the fleet is no more often than once every two weeks (on average). Derived maneuvering accuracy requirement levied on the ACS
