MPS-120 CubeSat High-impulse Adaptable Modular Propulsion System
Status: Completed
Start Date: 2014-04-01
End Date: 2015-04-01
Description:
This project matures the MPS - 120ª CubeSat High- Impulse Adaptable Modular Propulsion System (CHAMPS) which provides a 1U high impulse propulsion module using hydrazine (high impulse), used for orbit transfer/de-orbit in LEO.
Benefits:
The primary benefit of this work is to increase the utility of Cube Sats by adding a propulsive system to the satellite.
Lead Organization: Ames Research Center
