Product Name: Green Propulsion


Manufacturer Name: L3Harris Technologies


Product Description: Green Propulsion is an innovative propulsion solution developed by L3Harris, offering 50% higher performance compared to traditional hydrazine systems due to its enhanced density and specific impulse (Isp). This advanced propellant features a lower freezing point, which reduces the energy required to maintain spacecraft temperatures, leading to cost-effective operations. As the primary payload provider for NASA’s Green Propellant Infusion Mission (GPIM), L3Harris successfully demonstrated this technology, paving the way for its application in CubeSat propulsion systems. By leveraging insights from the GPIM program and additive manufacturing techniques, L3Harris is creating low-cost, modular propulsion systems for CubeSats, enhancing their maneuverability and orbital maintenance capabilities with delta-v performance of up to 750 m/sec across various module sizes from 1U to 8U.
