A UNIQUE EXPERIENCED TEAM
PRS was founded in 2023 by a group of experts from academia on electrodynamic tethers (EDTs) and related technologies. With a unique experience of more than 30 years on EDT missions and R&D projects, they decided to take a step forward and create a specialized company to develop and commercialize EDT products that can address the new propulsion needs of the space sector and contribute to its sustainability.
PRS has a passion for sustainable space propulsion technologies based on EDTs and it has an interdisciplinary team on software development, space mechanisms and avionics, and plasma contactors. The company has the goal to design, manufacture, test, market and service EDTs that take advantage of the space environment resources to achieve green and efficient propulsion.
PRS has a strong heritage from several projects funded by the European Innovation Council like E.T.PACK (2019-2022), E.T.PACK-F (2022-2025) and E.T.COMPACT (2024-2027), where key EDT technologies were developed and later transferred to PRS. PRS is also incubated by the ESA-BIC programme and the Technology-based Business Incubation and Acceleration Program of Universidad Carlos III de Madrid
