The document discusses the attitude dynamics of a re-entry vehicle (RV) in planetary atmospheres. It presents the following:
1) Equations of motion for the RV's angular momentum, unit vectors describing its orientation, and acceleration due to aerodynamic and gravitational forces.
2) Equations of motion for the RV's mass center in terms of its velocity, altitude, trajectory inclination angle, and dynamic pressure.
3) Solutions to the undisturbed equations of motion, including an energy integral and general solutions involving elliptic functions for different forms of the restoring aerodynamic moment.
