The objective of this work is to investigate the effects of laser torque on both passive and active control for LEO CubeSat. The investigation is based on the model of the Euler equations for rotational motion. A simple case of spacecraft attitude control problem is considered, in which passive control is performed by accounting only gravity gradient torque, and then active control technique is implemented using PD control and one momentum wheel. The system simulation is conducted using the package of Matlab 7.10-(R2010a). The simulated results show the effect of applying different magnitudes of ground based laser torque on the system stability for passive and active control. Having applied the ground based laser torque on passive and active control techniques respectively; the obtained results show that the laser torque possesses negative effects on the system performance for the current study. For passive control, the ground based laser torque has a significant effect where the roll and yaw angles' responses are diverged. However, with active control, the effect of laser torque is limited by a proper PD gains tuned.
