This is 1/3 the thickness of soda can material made of slightly
lighter materials.

The thruster is a MEMS bipropellant rocket with a 425 second
Isp. A 2.5 Newton rocket array masses 260 milligrams and
covers 7.23 sq mm area. This produces 1.54 gees at lift-off

The 1080i HDTV camera, laser and radio link, inertial guidance,
and control system mass 14 grams and is powered by hydrogen and
oxygen vented from the propellant system.

A two kilowatt propellant management and deep space
communications system that is comprised of a 1 kW electrolysis
unit and a 1 kW MEMS based cryocooler, electrolyzes 225 ml of
water into 24.85 grams of LH2 and 136.75 grams of LOX in less
than 1 hour. The system holds 1 litre of DI water and can fuel
three vehicles in three hours and put them on hold for up to 24
hours and automatically launch them when desired over that
period.

The entire system is controlled through a downloadable app from
your iPhone6 which streams data from the launch unit via
bluetooth and the unit streams from the vehicles via bluetooth
when within 100 meters and via laser link at larger distances,
including line of sight distances reaching into interplanetary
space up to 1 Gbit/sec.

Three boosters may be launched individually or operated as a single
clustered unit. The clustered unit may orbit a 35 gram satellite that
carries a solar powered ion engine array capable of flying beyond Earth
orbit to the Moon, Mars, Venus, Mercury, or the Asteroid belt.

These units are available from Coeus Limited of NZ. Interested
parties may reply to

Prices for ready to fly systems that run on Water and AC mains
range $225,000 and up.


Where's the video of your proving flight?

Sylvia.

Qualified buyers may arrange demonstration.

I will place an object into Sun Synch polar orbit in 2015 and recover
it after 6 orbits 12 hours after launch at the launch point. All
components are highly reusable.

I will make a video of the entire Earth from orbit and upload that
along with video of launch and recovery on a website I will create
*after* the flight.

That will be impressive. I look forward to seeing it.

Sylvia.
