Abstract The mass ejection systems called also propulsion systems are used both for attitude and orbit control. The propulsion systems currently available or in development operate using a wide spectrum of propulsion methods. In this chapter we review the main propulsion systems with a specific attention to chemical and plasmic propulsion. The theory of these propulsion systems is explored in order to characterize the main performance parameters at system level.
