electric propulsion

AASC develops affordable and reliable electric propulsion systems, including the MPT (Microwave Plasma Thruster), which creates thrust by ionizing and discharging a small fraction of a solid metallic puck fuel. The MPT operates with no warm-up time at a consistent 10μN/W, uses no fluids, valves, tanks or heaters, and requires no high static voltages (45V DC max). It is suited for microsats (<150 kg) as main propulsion and for minisats (>150 kg) as a complement to larger Hall/Ion engines. Developed with major NASA support through the SBIR grant program, w
