In this article, we consider the attitude tracking control problem for rigid spacecraft with bounded external disturbances. We propose a predefined-time predefined-bounded attitude tracking control scheme based on a nonsingular predefined-time sliding-mode manifold. The proposed controller is continuous and it can achieve predefined-time predefined-bounded stability. That is, the attitude tracking errors are driven to a predefined-bounded region around the origin within a predefined time, which can be set as a tuning parameter during the controller design, independently of initial conditions. Finally, numerical simulations are carried out to evaluate the performance of the proposed control law.
