Research Focus Areas: Sustainable Rocket Propulsion Systems The primary research topics encompass: in-space propulsion systems, reusable launchers, experimental investigations of methane/oxygen thrust chambers, long-term in-space storage of cryogenic propellants, and in-space logistics. Additionally, the institute conducts research on modeling space debris and space situational awareness, as well as projects related to in-space manufacturing and servicing.
