CAT: A Thruster for Interplanetary CubeSats

The CAT plasma thruster will propel a 5kg satellite into deep space, far beyond Earth orbit, at 1/1000th the cost of previous missions.

The Future of Space Exploration
We are currently developing the CubeSat Ambipolar Thruster (CAT), a new plasma propulsion system which will push small spacecraft like CubeSats around in orbit or far beyond the Earth.

This new thruster technology will enable us to send low-cost satellites from the Earth to distant destinations in the Solar System. You can be a part of space exploration history! By contributing to the CAT, you can help future spacecraft make amazing discoveries about extraterrestrial bodies and further our understanding of the near-Earth environment, the Solar System, and beyond. Who knows, maybe we’ll even be able to find life on those beckoning watery moons of Jupiter or Saturn!

You can't get there from here. Not in our lifetimes or our grand kids lifetimes. Get used to it before you support cheap space shots.

Of course you'd still be riding your horse and cooking on the fire.

This is WHAT CAPITLISM looks like as people are given a chance to raise funds for it. Only people that want to give money.

Some people blow thousands in a machine...Well, I have a right to spend money on space.
