ONERA, ThrustMe, and Airbus Defence and Space have initiated the IPISC project (Iodine Propulsion Interaction with Satellites and Components), supported by ESA and CNES. This project aims to evaluate the potential of iodine as a new propellant for satellites weighing over 500 kg, focusing on the interaction between iodine propulsion systems and a range of satellite materials and components. Iodine-based propulsion offers an alternative to noble gases like xenon.

The Association Aéronautique et Astronautique de France (3AF) recognizes outstanding achievements in aeronautics and astronautics. We extend our heartfelt thanks to the 3AF and the organizers for this recognition and a memorable ceremony. Congratulations to all the awardees for their exceptional contributions.

ThrustMe, a pioneering leader in satellite space propulsion systems, proudly announces celebrating one year of successfully ramping up to reach industrial-scale production. This achievement testifies to ThrustMe's leadership in producing the highest number of gridded ion thrusters to date and the only successfully in-orbit demonstrated iodine-fed propulsion system worldwide.
