Dynamics of Tethered Satellites and Space Elevators provides a comprehensive overview of the current state of knowledge of tethered space systems, including their potential applications, history, and a description of past and current space tether missions. This is followed by an in-depth investigation into various aspects of the dynamics and control of rigid and flexible single-tether space systems, tether propulsion, and multi-tether satellite systems. The use of tethers to remove space debris is discussed next alongside other sustainability-related considerations, making the content all the more relevant in view of the global pressures that stakeholders in the space sector currently face.

An entire section of chapters on the dynamics of partial and full space elevators concludes the volume.
