A new method of producing robust multi-wire tethers for Coulomb drag applications was developed. The multi-wire structure required for redundancy against the micrometeoroid flux of the space environment is realised through the method of wire twist bondin...

CubeSats, known for their compact size and cost effectiveness, have gained significant popularity. However, their limited size imposes restrictions on the optical aperture and, consequently, the Ground Resolution Distance in Earth Observation missions. T...

The electric solar wind sail, or E-sail, is a propellantless interplanetary propulsion system concept. By deflecting solar wind particles off their original course, it can generate a propulsive effect with nothing more than an electric charge. The high-v...
