Abstract

Space propulsion technology facilitates the launch and maneuvering of spacecraft. Different propulsion systems are present, like electric, chemical, and those using pressure. Chemical reactions are primarily used for thrust in current space launches, with ongoing advancements. Hydrazine is widely employed due to its performance and stability, despite its toxicity. The hazardous nature of hydrazine necessitates rigorous safety protocols. Consequently, research aims to create “green propellants” that are less toxic yet effective. Owing to its remarkable traits, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is regularly chosen for being both effective and safe. Its catalytic decomposition can be enhanced with catalysts, producing energy for space missions while ensuring stability.
