GO-2's flexible power use and low power standby mode enable instant response, tighter control, and more efficient scheduling.  This prolongs the satellite’s operational life, thereby improving its overall lifetime value.    

Problem:

You need small, reliable nudges to stay clear of other satellites and orbital debris and to keep your ground track tight.   


Solution:  

Continuous low thrust keeps you on-slot and out of harm’s way, without disruption to your mission.  


GO-2 Insights:  

  • Maintain continuous, precise thrust without interrupting your primary mission.

  • Max out thrust for quicker phasing or collision avoidance.  

  • Operate at the lower end of the thrust range for ultra-fine, continuous ground-track control.  

  • Flexible power operation (7 – 40 W) lets you adjust frequently, reducing scheduling conflicts from avoidance maneuvers and enabling tighter orbital control.   

  • System is able to stay in hot standby indefinitely at low power draw (-7W), allowing for microsecond reaction time to thrust commands.   


GO-2 Propelling Missions, Maximizing Returns:

Integrating electric propulsion for collision avoidance and station-keeping increases your ROI by maximizing uptime, minimizing propellant use, and reducing mission disruptions. GO-2 provides continuous, precise thrust to maintain tight ground tracks and perform quick response avoidance maneuvers without interrupting operations.
