Latest news from MIT says, Lozano, an associate professor of aeronautics and astronautics at MIT, is designing tiny ion thrusters which can propel shoebox-sized satellites, known as "CubeSats", through space. This will be a cheap and efficient way, in addition these thrusters can run on solar power too. It also contain a small amount of liquid propellant that, when electrified creates a stream of ions that are released from microscale nozzle as puffs of charged gas-generating thrust that can propel satellite forward.
