Impulse Space operated the Saiph thruster for a total of 65,000 seconds.
Impulse Space’s Saiph thruster is space qualified and ready to support the LEO Express-1 mission scheduled to launch in October 2023.
LEO Express-1 is Impulse Space’s first orbital mission and will use Mira, Impulse Space’s first spacecraft, to perform in-space services.
Starling is ideal for operations requiring a simple and reliable solution with no more than 2kN·s total impulse.
ThrustMe’s NPT30-I2-1.5U thruster provides high total impulse in a 1.5U volume to support deployment, significant orbit changes, collision-avoidance maneuvers, and end-of-life removal.
The NPT30-I2-1U produces thrust in the range of 0.3–1.1 mN and has a specific impulse of up to 2400 sec.
The Rutherford vacuum-optimized engine used on Electron’s second stage produces a maximum thrust of 24 kN (5,500 lbf) and has a specific impulse of 343 seconds.
Electron first stage sea-level Rutherford engines produce 24 kN (5,500 lbf) of thrust each and have a specific impulse of 311 seconds.
The V2 Mini Hall-effect thrusters produce 170 millinewtons of thrust while consuming 4.2 kilowatts of power and have a specific impulse of 2,500 seconds.
Impulse Space is committed to meeting a current launch timeline of 2023-10-01 for LEO Express-1.
Impulse Space plans long-term delivery services for all classes of payloads to destinations including Geostationary Earth Orbit, the Moon, and Mars.
Impulse Space procured a launch slot for LEO Express-1 on a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket as part of the Transporter-9 mission.
Impulse Space provides in-space transportation to custom orbits, in-space payload hosting, and precision re-entry trajectory injection with a near-term focus on Low Earth Orbit.
Mira is the first in a series of Impulse Space vehicles that will include future vehicles capable of placing payloads into geostationary transfer orbits or performing direct insertions into geostationary orbit.
Impulse Space plans additional missions in 2024 and will use future SpaceX Transporter missions as well as opportunities on other vehicles such as Relativity Space’s Terran.
LEO Express-1, using Impulse Space's transfer vehicle Mira, is manifested for launch on SpaceX’s Transporter-9 rideshare mission currently scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2023.
Impulse Space will launch its first orbital transfer vehicle late in 2023 on a SpaceX rideshare mission.
