The size of two loaves of bread side by side, their solar-powered CubeSat will hitch a ride on Artemis 1, get dropped off short of the moon and then propel itself as far as 28 million miles farther. All the while, their CubeSat will transmit information back to Earth.

“Water, another promising propellant for smallsats, is coming into its own thanks to companies like Miles Space.

“We feel that the market really wants water – I'd like to see a future in deep space with our power efficiency where water is a common byproduct,” says Miles Space CEO Wes Faler.

He says a key challenge is finding propulsion sources that are power efficient and use minimal fuel while supplying enough thrust to get a satellite to its final orbit.

His firm’s M1.4 Thruster with ConstantQ propulsion technology – developed over two years on a computer using basic electronics modeling and a simulator – uses a pulse process that converts electricity and water v***r into thrust. The system serves as a “safe, energy-efficient and inexpensive propellant,” Faler explains.”

NASA looking to build nuclear power generators on moon by 2030 05/12/2021

The agencies are looking to build a “durable, high-power, sun-independent power source for NASA missions on the moon by the end of the decade, as well as potential subsequent missions” and want submission for the “initial design system” by Feb. 19.

NASA looking to build nuclear power generators on moon by 2030 Extraterrestrial power stations will emerge from sci-fi mythos and into reality with the placement of a nuclear generator on the moon by 2030, according to NASA.

NASA delays human lunar landing to at least 2025 - SpaceNews 11/11/2021

In a Nov. 9 media teleconference, NASA Administrator Bill Nelson said the recently concluded legal challenge mounted by Blue Origin to the agency’s selection of SpaceX for a Human Landing System (HLS) award was a major, but not the only, reason for pushing back the lunar landing goal set by the Trump administration in March 2019.

NASA delays human lunar landing to at least 2025 - SpaceNews NASA leadership has formally given up on the goal of returning humans to the moon by 2024, pushing back a landing to at least 2025.

In "From Makerspace to Outer Space," Software engineer Wes Faler ('92) describes how he quit his own company to construct a plasma thruster, which was used to build a satellite that won NASA's Deep Space Derby. But it doesn't end there. Next up is a ride on NASA's Artemis One rocket later this year and a mission into deep space.
