Configure BOOSTER as a dedicated end-of-life propulsion system. Integrate it with minimal impact on the spacecraft, leave it dormant throughout the mission, and activate it when disposal is required.
Deorbit in a single burn
150–200+ m/s in minutes
Long-term dormancy
Designed for up to 10 years of lifetime
Low propellant leakage
Preserves deorbit capability over mission life
Low power demand
20 N thrust below 10 W
External integration
Bolt-on configuration option
Radiation tolerance & FDIR
Tested to 30 krad TID
How BOOSTER supports EOL disposal
Dormant for years. Ready on command.
Minimum impulse bits sized to the smallest delta-V step a docking profile demands, so closed-loop control converges on target instead of overshooting.
Fast, controlled deorbit
High-thrust configurations deliver the required deorbit impulse in minutes rather than over weeks or months. This shortens the disposal sequence and gives operators direct control over when the spacecraft leaves orbit.
Flexible spacecraft integration
BOOSTER can be integrated as the spacecraft’s main propulsion system or as a dedicated deorbit module, including externally mounted configurations. Low power demand and simple interfaces limit the impact on the host spacecraft.
