Abstract:
A projectile intended for damping a spacecraft ( 100 ) comprising a main body ( 110 ) and active attitude control means ( 150 ) comprises a harpoon and is intended to equip a space delivery vehicle to be projected towards the spacecraft. It comprises a passive damper ( 200 ) mounted such that it is fixed on the harpoon and suitable for generating, in cooperation with the Earth's magnetic field, a damping torque. That passive damper ( 200 ) comprises an outer enclosure ( 210 ) and an inner body ( 220 ) configured such that: the inner body, permanently magnetized, is positioned inside the outer enclosure and is capable of moving in rotation about at least one axis of rotation, the outer enclosure and the inner body comprise respectively an inner surface and an outer surface, separated by means of a viscous fluid, the outer enclosure is fixed to the main body of the spacecraft for rotation therewith once the harpoon is secured to the main body.

Claim (Index 23):
A projectile intended for damping a spacecraft comprising a main body and active attitude control means suitable for the  3 -axis stabilisation of the attitude of said spacecraft, said projectile comprising a harpoon and being intended to equip a space delivery vehicle, that is different from the spacecraft, in order to be projected from said space delivery vehicle towards said spacecraft, wherein said projectile comprises a passive damper mounted such that it is fixed on said harpoon and suitable for generating, in cooperation with the Earth's magnetic field, a damping torque, said passive dampercomprising an outer enclosure and an inner body that are configured such that:\n said inner body is positioned inside said outer enclosure and is capable of moving in rotation inside said outer enclosure about at least one axis of rotation, said outer enclosure comprises an inner surface and said inner body comprises an outer surface, said surfaces being separated by means of a viscous fluid, said inner body is permanently magnetised, said outer enclosure is fixed to the main body of said spacecraft for rotation therewith once the harpoon is secured to said main body.
