Abstract: Thrusters in a propulsion system of a spacecraft spin stabilized by rotation about a spin axis are fired to increase the orbital velocity of the spacecraft in a maneuver direction along the orbital velocity vector. The propulsion system comprises a pair of thrusters juxtaposed on a common support at the periphery of the spacecraft. The thrusters have thrust axes perpendicular to the spin axis and offset relative to a transverse axis of the spacecraft by equal and opposite offset angles. Each thruster is fired separately and alternately when its thrust axis is substantially parallel to the maneuver direction while the spacecraft is rotating about its spin axis.
