Key highlights

Maxwell is a turn-key electric propulsion solution designed to provide thrust for next-generation small satellites.

The system package includes a proprietary RF thruster, power electronics, a 1.26 kg xenon propellant tank, and the required flight software.

Maxwell is designed to leverage high-efficiency miniaturized RF electronic components, and an electrodeless design, in order to provide a plasma propulsion solution in a small physical volume.
