Neumann Space, founded in 2015, is an Australian company specializing in in-space electric propulsion systems for satellites, including CubeSats and SmallSats. Their primary product, the Neumann Drive, utilizes a patented Centre-Triggered Pulsed Cathodic Arc Thruster (CT-PCAT) technology, which converts solid conductive propellants into plasma to generate thrust. Neumann Space partners with organizations like the European Space Agency (ESA), Space Inventor, and Surrey Satellite Technology Ltd (SSTL) for in-orbit demonstration missions. The company's technology aims to provide efficient and scalable propulsion solutions for LEO missions, including mission extension, station keeping, and de-orbiting.
