The BOOST project aims to advance electric propulsion technologies for small satellites using solid iodine propellant. By developing modular components and a smart recharging system, it seeks to enhance the viability and standardization of electric propulsion systems in the space market.
In the last decade, SmallSats (mass <500 kg) disrupted the space market since they allow to access space at a markedly lower cost with respect to medium-to-large systems, and this trend is expected to further grow in the next years.
Solid iodine propellant has proven to be an enabling technology to consolidate electric propulsion (EP) in the SmallSat market.
Nonetheless, its widespread diffusion is still hindered by issues related to the low maturity of this technology.
In order to establish the…
