Abstract:
Three years after launch, higher-than-normal drag was detected on one of the Cassini reaction wheels. The likely cause was lubricant dispersal after prolonged operation of the RWA at a very slow speed. Treat reaction wheels as a consumable resource, and minimize the time they are operated at very slow speeds.
