A Full Mission Summary (1997-2017) of the Attitude Control Performance during Orbit Trim Maneuvers Performed by the Cassini-Huygens SpacecraftThe Cassini mission was a highly successful 20-year mission to the planet Saturn that
launched in 1997 and concluded its mission in September 2017. Over the course of its mission,
Cassini executed hundreds of main engine and thruster-controlled ΔV maneuvers. This paper
provides an overview of the Cassini maneuvers and provides data on the performance of the
attitude controller and maneuver execution errors during these maneuvers. The paper
concludes with an appendix documenting the vital statistics for all maneuvers that Cassini
performed.
