WASHINGTON — Orbion, an independent small-satellite propulsion company based in Michigan, has delivered 33 electric ...
Polarstern is being built for the Alfred Wegener Institute, Helmholtz Center for Polar and Marine Research (AWI).The new ...
Engineers at NASA say they have successfully revived thrusters aboard Voyager 1, the farthest spacecraft from our planet, in the nick of time before a planned communications blackout. A side effect of ...
NASA engineers have pulled off an incredible feat: switching the agency’s ancient Voyager 1 probe — the farthest human-made object in existence — to a different set of thrusters. The feat, heavily ...
A form of electric propulsion known as Hall thrusters — a type of ion thruster — may actually pack more bang for the buck than expected. Hall thrusters have conventionally been used to adjust the ...
Kongsberg Maritime has secured a contract to supply its innovative rim-drive thrusters for a new advanced acoustic research ...
It was believed that Hall thrusters, an efficient kind of electric propulsion widely used in orbit, need to be large to produce a lot of thrust. Now, a new study suggests that smaller Hall thrusters ...
As with all aging bodies, clogged tubes form an increasing issue. So too with the 47-year old Voyager 1 spacecraft and its hydrazine thrusters. Over the decades silicon dioxide from an aging rubber ...
