A project to design passive nutation dumpers for spinning spacecraft. Spinning spacecrafts dominated early Earth satellite models because of their simple propulsion and simple thermal control. However, demand for operating high frequency antennas and optical instruments has reduced the number of new spinners to nearly zero. Expertise on AOCS of spinners is faidnig.  LUNAR CARGO P.C. wants to revive the technology for purely cargo spacecraft. We envisage designing cylndrical spacecraft that will be configured as spinners and will have stable axis to facilitate docking by carrier spacecraft, to effect docking and repositioning. A student projext is envisaged to collect past mission information and design a generic nutation damper. Possibility to extent engagement in subsequent project phases (implementation)
