Summary In this study, for nonrigid spacecraft formation, a distributed adaptive finite‐time actuator fault‐tolerant (FTAFT) coordinated attitude tracking control (CATC) issue is addressed. Aiming at stabilizing the spacecraft formation flying system during a limited time, two distributed adaptive FTAFT CATC strategies are presented. Initially, on basis of distributed finite‐time observer (DFTO), adaptive control, consensus approach, graph theory, and finite‐time theory, we develop a distributed adaptive FTAFT coordinated attitude tracking controller to repress the impact of the external state‐dependent and state‐independent disturbance, unknown time‐varying inertia uncertainty, and actuator fading or fault. Then, combining with the proposed controller, a distributed adaptive FTAFT control law with input saturation subjected to physical limitations of actuator is further designed. In addition, a self‐adjusting matrix (SAM) is proposed to improve the actuators' performance. With the two proposed CATC strategies, the followers can synchronize with the leader. Simulations demonstrated the validity of the designed control laws.
