Figure 9.1: The solar radiation torques for two full rotations of the satellite around apogee. The top graph shows the torques in the inertial reference frame, clearly exposing the three-fold symmetry of the satellite. The bottom graph shows the torques in the satellite reference frame, as observed and applied in the Euler equation. The red, blue and green curves represent the x, y and z axes respectively.
