Services

Experience is not given, but earned.

We have worked fundamental mission concepts, performed concept-to-implementation EP system development, overseen spacecraft integration operations, and successfully resolved on-orbit anomalies.

We are therefore uniquely qualified to provide numerous services to customers building & flying EP-based spacecraft.

ep system Development

On-orbit positioning is critical, which begins with the EP system. We have the knowhow to spearhead the a novel EP thruster design or optimize an existing propulsion solution.

  • Fundamental & background research and system conceptualization

  • Requirements definitions to meet the mission needs

  • Component-level & integrated system planning and layout

  • Detailed design & prototype development guidance and support

  • Material selection & mass optimization for each subsystem element

Qualification & Test Support

The ability for space hardware to survive launch, space environments, and the full mission duration must be validated. Our extensive experience enables us to provide numerous related services.

  • Procedure generation & review

  • Facility buildup, equipment selection, & configuration optimization

  • Component-level testing planning & oversight

  • Environmental & lifetime qualification support

  • Hardware & test anomaly resolution & root-cause investigations

Spacecraft integration support

Space hardware is worthless without an integrated spacecraft system. Let us assist with your spacecraft-level integration workflow.

  • On-vehicle hardware placement optimization

  • Electrical & plumbing routing

  • Hardware installation sequencing

  • Spacecraft-level acceptance testing

  • Space environment considerations

  • Critical document (e.g., ICD, Test Report, Specification) review

Post-Launch support

You’ve made it to orbit, but your EP system is not operating nominally. Worse, failure to resolve the issue is threatening mission success.

What now?

We have experience with resolving mission-critical on-orbit anomalies associated with electric propulsion systems.

Your mission is not over. Let us get you back on trajectory .
