A small-scale spacecraft has limited resources and requires innovative solutions to enable capabilities similar to those of a larger spacecraft. In particular, a small-scale spacecraft has a limited outer surface area, which is typically used for bod

An electrodynamic-tether system in low Earth orbit has the possibility of transferring energy from its orbital potential energy to its electrical system. Thus, electrical energy can be made availab...

The success of nanosatellites (1–10 kg) and the miniaturization of sophisticated low-power electronics has motivated interest in even smaller “smartphone”-sized spacecraft as either standalone spacecraft or elements in a maneuverable fleet. The

The sub-kilogram, “smartphone”-sized satellite is a transformative concept, inspired by the success of nanospacecraft (1–10 kg) and millimeter-scale wireless sensor network concepts. These ultra-small satellites, known as picosatellites (100 g

Via ground-based experiments, we were able to determine the I-V characteristic of indium tin oxide-coated glass in a simulated low Earth environment. We achieved a passive plasma contact by biasing a planar surface coated in a thin layer of indium ti

The efficacy of an electrodynamic tether system in generating a propulsive force or harvesting energy is limited, in part, by its ability to collect current from and emit current to the surrounding ambient plasma. This process is facilitated by activ

Summary form only given. The emerging interest in nanospacecraft (1–10 kg) has generated interest in exploring the potential for even smaller spacecraft, both as stand-alone satellites or as a distributed swarm. Because of advances in integrated ci

In this paper we investigate an approach that appears to scale to the small size needed for femtosatellite (commonly called “ChipSats”) drag make-up and even orbit raising with the added benefit of being propellantless. The approach uses a short,
