Completed TRL 6 (started at 3, targeting 6)
This project matures the MPS - 120ª CubeSat High- Impulse Adaptable Modular Propulsion System (CHAMPS) which provides a 1U high impulse propulsion module using hydrazine (high impulse), used for orbit transfer/de-orbit in LEO.
The primary benefit of this work is to increase the utility of Cube Sats by adding a propulsive system to the satellite.
Listed on TechPort itself — the most direct way to ask about this specific project.
This is early/mid-stage (TRL 6) — the most realistic path in is NASA SBIR/STTR, which funds small businesses and research institutions to develop technology aligned with NASA's needs (equity-free, phased funding). Check whether a current SBIR/STTR solicitation topic overlaps with this project's technology area, or contact the project directly (above) to ask.
None of these are guaranteed paths for this specific project — TechPort itself doesn't have an "apply" button. Reaching out to the contact(s) above with a specific question is usually the fastest way to find out what's actually open.
