Abstract
A number of propellant/thruster combinations are under development in recent years that aim to replace the prevailing hydrazine-driven reaction control thrusters with less hazardous substances (green propellants). With some of these systems already in orbit, characterizing their contamination potential in a space environment becomes relevant. In this paper we discuss experiments on plume induced contamination from a novel propene/N2O bipropellant thruster operated in a high vacuum environment.
