Comparison of chemical and electrical propulsion systems for interplanetary missions and for satellite orientation shows advantages of latter consisting of accelerator, which produces thrust, propellant storage tank, and nuclear reactor-electric generator which supplies energy; electrical energy conversion methods; work at Boeing Airplane Co on confined parallel rail pulsed plasma accelerator main objective of which was examination of its efficiency, thrust level, and operating lifetime.
