Superconducting thruster cuts power and mass for space propulsion
Singapore (SDX) Feb 25, 2026
Small satellites have become attractive for space missions because they offer low cost and flexibility, but their growth has been limited by the lack of compact, efficient propulsion systems that work well in the vacuum of space. In orbit, spacecraft can only change their motion through reaction force, and traditional chemical rockets produce thrust by burning fuel to generate high temperature g
