About
Pale Blue PBR-30 is a water vapor propulsion system in a less-than-2U form factor designed for NanoSats and MicroSats. It is a fully integrated system incorporating the thruster head, fluidics, electronics, and propellant tank, and is clusterable to scale to a wide range of spacecraft sizes. The PBR-30 uses water as propellant — no high-pressure storage is required — and the propellant is preloaded at the factory. The system delivers 3–12 mN of thrust with variable power input from 10 to 35 W.
