Study: Plasma thrusters used on satellites could be much more powerful
Updated : 3 years, 1 month ago IST
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 thrusts. Now, a new study from the University of Michigan suggests that smaller Hall thrusters can generate much more thrust, potentially making them candi
