| 41. | This allows much smaller thrusters compared to gridded ion thrusters.
|
| 42. | Hall effect thrusters had operated on Soviet satellites since 1972.
|
| 43. | The spacecraft was controlled by eight thrusters in two blocks.
|
| 44. | Thrusters were pulsed in the time domain to perform rotation or translation.
|
| 45. | On 27 May, ion thruster operation was started again.
|
| 46. | The thrusters for attitude control to stay aligned with Earth.
|
| 47. | Thus, a fully autonomous EHD thruster is theoretically possible.
|
| 48. | The BUUV had two kicking legs and a thruster for vertical propulsion.
|
| 49. | Maneuvering is accomplished using 4 thrusters and one main propeller.
|
| 50. | Firing the thruster causes the lander to fly straight upwards.
