  1. The #3Dprinted prototype was able to generate thrust more #efficiently than larger, more expensive #chemical rockets and outperformed existing droplet #electrospray engines. It can be produced rapidly and for a fraction of the #cost πŸ’΅ of traditional thrusters and even be fully made in #orbit 🌌 news.mit.edu/2025/mit-engineer

  6. Rigged an #electrospray to try some droplet chemistry - illuminated with a 5 mW diode pumped Nd:YAG laser at 532 nm.
