ISRO successfully Completes 1,000hrs Life Test of Stationary Plasma Thruster For Spacecraft Electric Propulsion System

On March 27, 2025, ISRO successfully completed the life test of 1000hrs on the 300mN Stationary Plasma Thruster, that is developed for induction into the Electric Propulsion System of satellites.The Electric Propulsion System is proposed to replace the chemical propulsion system in future satellites of ISRO and pave the way for communication satellites which use only electric propulsion systems
