Propellant-free solutions for in-space propulsion
Space tether technologies to de-orbit, reboost, make station keeping and harvest power without using propellant
How we do it:
Like sailing boats, that travel without fuel by using the wind, EDTs interact with the space environment (ambient plasma and geomagnetic field) to produce a force without using propellant.
WHAT ARE EDTs?
EDTs are in-orbit conductors that can provide drag and thrust without using propellant; effectively serving as de-orbiting devices as well as in-orbit propulsion solutions.
Propellant-free
We simply use natural resources of the space environment
Reversible
We can either propel any space vehicle or de-orbit it.
Reversible
EDTs are energy–reversible: In Low Earth Orbit they can produce a drag and deorbit while producing power for onboard use or use onboard power to produce a thrust and reboost the spacecraft or make station keeping.
Scalable
For small to large applications, this technology can fit your needs
Scalable
This technology is scalable because the length, width and thickness of the tape can be chosen according to the propulsive needs of the mission.
