Poster describing the Sub-Kilowatt Electric Propulsion (SKEP) project to develop a propulsion system (HET (Hall-Effect Thruster), PPU (Power Processing Unit - solar electric propulsion) and XFS (Xenon Feed System)) for ESPA ( Evolved Expendable Launch Vehicle (EELV) Secondary Payload Adapter)-class spacecraft. Technology Goal: SKEP will develop and qualify a long-life, sub-kilowatt integrated propulsion system based on recent advances in Hall-Effect Thruster (HET) technology that will support exploration missions and enable high-value science and commercial applications within the constraints of an ESPA-class spacecraft. Enable double to triple the delta-v propulsive capability currently available to secondary spacecraft, thus making ESPA-class spacecraft compelling for NASA exploration and science missions as well as many commercial applications.
