Description PROITERES (Project of Osaka Institute of Technology Electric-Rocket-Engine onboard Small Space Ship) PROITERES is a student-built nanosatellite mission of the Osaka Institute of Technology (OIT), Osaka, Japan. The overall objective is to demonstrate powered flight on a nanosatellite with an electrothermal PPT (Pulsed Plasma Thruster) device. The satellite project was started in the Mechanical Engineering Department of OIT in 2007. The PPT technology concept has already been studied at OIT since 2003 to understand the physical phenomena and to improve the thrust performance with both experiments and numerical simulations.
