Chapter 10, Problem 10.44(choose chapter or problem)
An axially symmetric space station (principal axis e3, and Xi = X2) is floating in free space. It has rockets mounted symmetrically on either side that are firing and exert a constant torque r about the symmetry axis. Solve Euler's equations exactly for co (relative to the body axis) and describe the motion. At t = 0 take co = (cow, 0, 130)-
