MIT Unveils Fully 3D Printed Electrospray Engine for Spacecraft Propulsion

Engineers at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) , a prestigious research university located in Cambridge, United States, have developed the first fully 3D printed electrospray engine. This engine uses an electric field to generate high-speed jets of small droplets that provide propulsion for spacecraft, making it ideal for small satellites like CubeSats. The research, supported […]
