This mission, initiated by the European Space Agency (ESA), aims at removing a large defunct satellite from Earth orbit: ENVISAT. The goal of this paper is to promote academic solutions to add fault tolerance capacities against thruster faults without any change or new tuning of the already in-place GNC solution. The validation of the proposed FTC solution is assessed by a simulation campaign based on a high-fidelity nonlinear industrial simulator.application/pdfengopenAccessASTRONÁUTICAAERONÁUTICASISTEMAS DE CONTROLO AUTOMÁTICOAERONAUTICSCONTROL SYSTEMSASTRONAUTICSconferenceObjecthttps://doi.org/10.1109/SYSTOL.2019.8864753
