Yes, propulsion hasn't been AMSAT's strong point, but for \nmost of the last 20 years, I only recall LEOs being put up (AO-40 \nbeing the only exception I can recall in that timeframe).\n\nSo the challenge is to find a means of propulsion that is relatively \nsafe, inexpensive and lightweight, but can move a satellite into a \nsignificantly higher orbit (e.g. MEO). I'd imagine that such a form \nof propulsion is probably only found in science fiction, but how \nclose can one get in the real world? Are there any universities \nworking on cheaper ways to move satellites around, once launched, \nthat need a suitable test mass (that happens to have a transponder or \ntwo on board)?\n\n73 de VK3JED / VK3IRL\nhttp://vkradio.com\n\n", "attachments": [] }
