About
The Halo 8 Hall-Effect Thruster from ExoTerra revolutionizes CubeSat missions by allowing spacecraft to reach optimal orbits, maintain them for long durations, and deorbit on command. It meets the mass, volume, and thermal constraints of CubeSats and other rideshare spacecraft. Operating at power levels between 100 and 450W, the Halo 8 is suitable for satellites from 6U CubeSats to ESPA class. Compatible with both xenon and krypton propellant. As of mid-2023, four Halo-based integrated propulsion systems are operating in orbit.
