ANN ARBOR, Michigan, Jan. 8 (TNSRes) -- The University of Michigan issued the following news release:
A cubesat, largely built by undergraduate students and scheduled to launch on Sunday, will explore the feasibility of a new propulsion method that could enable very small satellites to move around Earth's orbit without carrying fuel.
This could pave the way for tiny satellites that stay in orbit for long periods and operate in swarms, monitoring storms and natural . . .
