- Our manufacturing processes allow us to pick our metal alloys based on properties, not manufacturability. This gives our thrusters lower heat signatures making spacecraft harder to detect through thermal imaging, perfect for missions requiring stealth. agilespaceindustries.com/press/agile-sp…
- A2200 our 2224 N thrust, Bipropellant Engine. A engine being used on lunar landers with a fully downloadable spec sheet. buff.ly/3M3YIlt
- A110 is a 111.2 ± 4.45 N, over 50% 3D printed bipropellant in-space thruster. It increases lander payload by 20-40kg compared to legacy thrusters used for spacecraft attitude control and ΔV maneuvers. Read more about A110 here: agilespaceindustries.com/a110
- A110 our 111 N thrust, Bipropellant thruster. The engine being used on both the Astrobotic Griffin and ispace Apex 1.0 lunar landers has a fully downloadable spec sheet. static1.squarespace.com/static/634ee7b…
- #A110 back on the stand! This test resulted in a 27.5 second burn within our Sunshine Test Stand vacuum chamber; all things nominal, burn went well.
00:00 - We are switching from Hydrazine to nuclear-pumped magneto-plasma. #MayThe4thBeWithYou
- View of the A110 thruster being hotfired in our vacuum chamber. Our 'Sunshine' Test Stand in Durango Colorado is built to simulate space like conditions to hotfire our in-space engines and thrusters.
00:00 - We are in production of A110 thrusters, building them for multiple spacecraft. These will be landing on the moon!
- M4 our 4 N (0.9 lbf) thrust monopropellant thruster, our recently announced engine has a downloadable spec sheet. buff.ly/3vnXBIf
- With over 7,000 hotfire tests performed at our facility in Durango, CO, we confidently deliver a suite of in-space propulsion solutions with the reliability and confidence that our customers seek.
