Deploying Low‑Cost CubeSat Thrusters Unlocks Interplanetary Ambitions
Engineers have demonstrated a CubeSat thruster that can deliver interplanetary trajectories for under $5,000, cutting propulsion costs by 72% and opening deep-space opportunities previously reserved for larger satellites. In the Indian context, this shift promises to democratise access to planetary science and commercial exploration. space : space science and technology
