Engineers at NASA say they have successfully revived thrusters aboard Voyager 1, the farthest spacecraft from our planet, in the nick of time before a planned communications blackout. A side effect of ...
NASA revived roll thrusters on the 47-year-old Voyager 1 that were thought to be dead for two decades. According to the space agency, scientists at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory of NASA, located in ...
WASHINGTON — Orbion, an independent small-satellite propulsion company based in Michigan, has delivered 33 electric ...
A satellite company named Maxar recently delivered a passenger-van-sized chunk of spacecraft to NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in California. This chassis will serve as the backbone for a robotic ...
Voyager 1 just fired up a set of thrusters that have been dormant for 37 years. The aging spacecraft, first launched in 1977, is the fastest and most well-traveled spacecraft ever launched by NASA. It ...
NASA engineers have pulled off an incredible feat: switching the agency’s ancient Voyager 1 probe — the farthest human-made object in existence — to a different set of thrusters. The feat, heavily ...
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 thrust. Now, a new study suggests that smaller Hall thrusters ...
