摘要

With the backing of the U.K. Space Agency and Enterprise Ireland, Moog Inc. is leading an effort to develop a liquid propellant engine capable of providing higher thrust with less propellant than existing propulsion systems. The goal is to create a 1,100 Newton-class engine for planetary missions that can send more scientific instruments into orbit around Mars than is possible with 500 Newton-class engines. The engines will be efficient enough to save 150 kilograms of propellant on a 3,500 -kilogram spacecraft, Moog officials said. "Interplanetary missions are becoming ever more ambitious in terms of scale and the spacecraft sent to planets are becoming larger," said Lolan Naicker, Moog's lead engineer for the High Thrust Apogee Engine (HTAE). "To accommodate more science instruments on a spacecraft, you need to trim down all the service aspects of that spacecraft. For instance, the propulsion design needs to be reduced in mass."
