Engineers develop a fully 3D-printed electrospray engine that can power tiny satellites
The 3D-printed device generated as much or more thrust than existing droplet-emitting electrospray engines. With this technology, astronauts might quickly print an engine for a satellite without ...
MIT engineers have demonstrated the first fully 3D-printed, droplet-emitting electrospray engine. The device, which would be ideal for enabling small satellites to make in-orbit maneuvers, can be ...
