In this article we have studied the controllability of artificial satellite under the effect of zonal harmonic J2 in cylindrical polar coordinates systems. Seven different cases of thrusters in various directions have been analyzed and it is found that the system is controllable if we apply thrusters in either r, θ and z or θ and z direction. The equations governing motion of satellite have been linearized and Kalman controllability test is applied to check the controllability of the system. We have also derived controller u for the linearized system. The trajectory of the system have been plotted to show the controllability of the system.
