Higher Performance: Green propellants offer 50 percent higher performance over a traditional hydrazine propulsion system, due to its higher density and higher specific impulse (Isp). It also has a lower freezing point, requiring less spacecraft power to maintain its temperature.

Safer Operations: Green propellants are easier to handle and, therefore, lower cost to integrate and fuel for operation.

Our Role

Green Propellant Infusion Mission: L3Harris is the primary payload provider of a demonstration propulsion system for the Green Propellant Infusion Mission (GPIM). Green Propellant was successfully demonstrated on NASA mission.

CubeSat Propulsion Systems: L3Harris is leveraging lessons from the GPIM program and its additive manufacturing efforts to develop a low-cost propulsion system for CubeSats using green propellants. CubeSats today typically lack propulsion, leaving them with limited ability to maneuver or maintain orbit. L3Harris' modular propulsion systems cover a range of propulsion module sizes from 1U to 8U offering up to 750 m/sec delta-v capability. L3Harris is working with a number of satellite manufacturers to deliver flight CubeSat propulsion modules.
