This federal contract award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center is a Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I award to Princeton Satellite Systems Inc., doing business as Princeton Fusion Systems. The $124,973 contract focuses on the design of a superconducting coils subsystem for nuclear fusion rocket engines and other fusion and electric propulsion technologies. The goal is to develop space coils using high-temperature superconductors that can operate at medium temperatures between 20-30 Kelvin, reducing cooling requirements compared to low-temperature conductors. Princeton Fusion Systems will collaborate with the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) to leverage their expertise in coil specifications and magnet design for small, steady-state fusion devices. The research aims to determine the feasibility of an optimal coil design to support a potential future Phase II experiment to build and test 2 Tesla coils.
