BHT-20K
Overview
With over 100 times the power of our first Hall thruster, the BHT-20K is a massive step forward in Hall Thruster technology. Using an innovative 2.8 cm center mounted cathode and a highly mass-efficient magnetic circuit design, the BHT-20K offers outstanding specific impulse and thrust in a lightweight and compact package.
Tested at the Arnold Engineering Development Center (AEDC) and the NASA Glenn Research Center (GRC), the BHT-20K has demonstrated throttling over a range of input power from 5kW to 22 kW. For destinations including the moon, Mars, Venus, or beyond, the BHT-20K is ready to deliver high power space propulsion.
