Electric Propulsion

Abstract

NASA Lewis Research Center's electric propulsion technology program is developing and transferring new, innovative propulsion technologies to industry. Next-generation, high-performance arcjets are now operational on communications satellites. The improved fuel efficiency provided by this innovative, new arcjet technology was used both to reduce launch vehicle requirements and to extend satellite life.
