This paper deals with the application of linear optimal control and filtering theory to control a spinning spacecraft with movable telescoping appendages. The equations of motion are linearized about the desired final state. A feedback control system is designed to maintain this final state, with plant noise and measurement noise present in the system. Analytic results are obtained for special cases and numerical results are presented for the general case.
