520 |a"Despite the outstanding success of modern rocket technology in launching astronauts to the moon and complex unmanned spacecraft to Mars, Jupiter and the inner planets, a large amount of international effort has been devoted to the development of more exotic forms of space propulsion, notably electric propulsion. … The report deals with the various types of electric thrusters that have been developed for both primary and auxiliary propulsion. Details of the principal characteristics of the most promising and currently developed devices along with the advantages and disadvantages of each type of thruster are also discussed. In addition, an account is given of some of the missions for which each type of electric propulsion system is suited, concentrating on applications dealing with north-south station-keeping (NSSK) of geostationary satellites, orbit transfer and interplanetary objectives. Finally, a system configuration is discussed based on the current state-of-the-art and conclusions and recommendations are given for current and future development"--Introduction, page 1.
