DESCRIPTION:<\/strong>
Introduction to Satellite Propulsion:
Most all small to large class satellites require a propulsion system for essentially three reasons:
1) to transfer the satellite from the launch vehicle parking orbit to the final orbit
2) to maintain and control the satellite in the final orbit, and 3)
3) to maintain and control satellite attitude during large engine firings and other events.
The several types of satellite propulsion system designs will be discussed as will be some of the
different types of thrusters that currently exist and have flown. Performance parameters will be
discussed as will some of the details behind the testing and propellant loading methodologies as
well.
