Public award description
IGF::OT::IGF BUSEK HAS BEEN EVALUATING AND DEVELOPING HALL THRUSTER TECHNOLOGIES FOR ALTERNATIVE PROPELLANTS TO XENON FOR INCREASED PROPELLANT DENSITY. UNDER PREVIOUS SBIR AND STTR ACTIVITIES, BUSEK HAS DEMONSTRATED THE VIABILITY OF ROOM TEMPERATURE SOLID PROPELLANTS. NASA WOULD LIKE TO DEVELOP A SOLID PROPELLANT 200W HALL THRUSTER AND CATHODE FOR INTEGRATION AND TESTING WITH A 6U CUBESAT TO DEMONSTRATE FLIGHT-LIKE OPERATIONS AND FURTHER MATURE THE INTEGRATED SYSTEM. THIS ADDITIONAL HARDWARE DEVELOPMENT AND TEST WILL ASSIST THE INFUSION OF THIS INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGY INTO MISSION APPLICATIONS.
