Motus orbital transfer vehicle

Motus stands out as the most compact orbital transfer vehicle tailored for nanosatellites, PocketQubes, and in-orbit technology demonstration. It’s powered by our state-of-the-art Whisper green chemical propulsion system, enabling swift and versatile orbital maneuvers – whether it’s phasing, altitude adjustments, or LTAN changes.

At Liftero, we provide a premium, end-to-end last-mile logistic service. Satellite operators can leverage the full payload capacity of Motus for their deployment requirements. Your mission is our top priority — both during ground integration and in space operations.

Whisper green chemical propulsion

Whisper

Whisper green chemical propulsion sits at the heart of the Motus orbital transfer vehicle, but we also offer it as a standalone product. Liftero offers various thrust levels of Whisper thrusters, each equipped with its distinct set of valves and control units. We provide a turn-key propulsion system, including propellant tanks tailored to your mission specifications.

Our propulsion system is entirely ITAR-free, operates without the need for preheating, and uses non-toxic propellants that are widely accessible globally. Additionally, we offer an engineering model for seamless integration and testing.
