ION-X has finalized a commercial agreement with Univity, previously Constellation Technologies and Operations, to supply HALO-MAX electric thrusters for the uniShape mission. The uniShape initiative serves as a preparatory stage for Univity's uniSky project, aiming to establish a Very Low Earth Orbit (VLEO) satellite constellation that delivers global high-speed 5G-NTN connectivity from space.

HALO-MAX represents the latest advancement in ION-X's propulsion product line. Featuring an enlarged ionic liquid tank and improvements inherited from the HALO-100X system, which completed a successful flight in low earth orbit earlier this year, HALO-MAX is designed to provide increased total impulse and delta-V. This will allow longer operational lifespans and more versatile orbital maneuvering fo
