A new electrostatic thruster technology is under development at the University of Michigan using nanoparticles as propellant with micro‐ and nano‐electromechanical systems. Termed the nanoparticle field extraction thruster (nanoFET), this highly integrated propulsion concept is a high efficiency, variable specific impulse engine type that can be readily scalable for a large range of future space science and exploration missions.
