The Attitude Determination and Control Subsystem (ADCS) is very essential for stabilizing the satellite in orbit and ensuring that it points in the direction it is supposed to point in.For a systematic understanding the functions and various components of ADCS, we have organized the contents in a systematic manner as shown below: *Introduction to ADCS**[[What is Attitude?]]**[[What is Control?]]**[[What is a frame?]]*** [[What is a frame?#Earth Centered Inertial Frame (ECIF) | Earth Centered Inertial Frame (ECIF)]]*** [[What is a frame?#Earth Centered Earth Fixed (ECEF) Frame | Earth Centered Earth Fixed (ECEF) Frame]]*** [[What is a frame?#Orbital Frame | Orbital Frame]]*** [[What is a frame?#Body Frame | Body Frame]]**[[Equations of Rigid Body Rotational and Translational Dynamics]]**[[Requirements on ADCS by other Subsystems]]**[[Requirements by ADCS on other Subsystems]]*[[Components of ADCS]]**Sensors and Estimators***[[What is Estimation?
