New strategy saves fuel. Report discusses three existing strategies for maneuvers that maintain apparent position of geosynchronous satellite and present new strategy for satellite subject to daily momentum-wheel dumps. Increases useful lifetime of satellite by reducing frequencies and sizes of maneuvers, reducing rate of fuel consumption.
