What is it about?
Binary asteroids have a small mass, thus small gravitational potential. Because of this, the Solar Radiation Pressure (SRP) has a non negligible impact on the dynamics of a spacecraft in this type of environment. The way the SRP acceleration is modeled and the attitude schemes of the spacecraft also influence the motion of the spacecraft.
