LyonSpace was created in 1999 to provide consultancy services in satellite propulsion components and systems, covering the preparation of proposals, engineering development, trouble-shooting and management, principally associated with smallsat propulsion. Most types of propulsion technologies are supported: cold gas, including proportional micro-thrusters and liquefied gas propellants, resistojets, hydrazine monopropellants, bipropellants and electric propulsion systems, mainly Hall Effect and Gridded Ion thrusters and cathodes. In addition, the components associated with propellant storage and feed systems such as electronic pressure regulation, including thermal aspects, are part of the company heritage.
