The space capsule has a mass of 2 Mg, center of mass at G, and radii of gyration about its axis of symmetry (z axis) and its transverse axes (x or y axis) of kz = 2.75 m and kx = ky = 5.5 m, respectively. If the capsule has the angular velocity shown, determine its precession ϕ and spin ψ. Indicate whether the precession is regular or retrograde. Also, draw the space cone and body cone for the motion.
