A general description and review of the auxiliary Electric Propulsion program, which led to the present 1-mlb (4.5 mN) thruster system, is presented. The developmental history, performance, and major lifetests of each component of the system are traced over the past 10 years. Major components include the 8-cm diameter ion thruster, the power processor, and the propellant reservoir and distribution system.
