    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an attitude control method for an orbital non-cooperative object capable of damping the angular momentum of the orbital non-cooperative object by simple method without a large-scale system such as a net, tether or the like. SOLUTION: A projection material 2 is projected to the non-cooperative objet 1 freely moving on aerospace orbit from another satellite to apply an impact in the direction of damping the angular momentum, thereby reducing the angular momentum. Accordingly, the movement of the non-cooperative object can be made into a single spin or stopped so that capture by a robot arm or the like is enabled.
