Dans le cadre du suivi en orbite des satellites orbite basse d'observation de la terre, il est nécessaire de mettre au point un outil de suivi et de caractérisation de la dérive aléatoire des gyroscopes utilisés par le pilotage. Cet outil doit permettre d'évaluer la santé des équipements concernés, et d'anticiper d'éventuels problèmes en orbite. 1, record 1, French, - d%C3%A9rive%20al%C3%A9atoire%20des%20gyroscopes
