Ionized Engine. Silent and simple ion engine powers a plane with no moving parts. Operating in the near vacuum of space, ion engines shoot out a propellant gas much faster than the jet of a chemical rocket. Electrostatic thrusters (“ion engines”) are the best developed type of electric propulsion de vice, dating in conception to the 1950’s, and having. Ion engines employ the acceleration of one or more species of ions in an ionized gas, by means of an imposed electrostatic field. They deliver about ten times as much thrust per kilo of propellant. The light aircraft is the first plane to fly with no propellers, turbine blades, or other moving parts. An ion thruster ionizes propellant by adding or removing electrons to produce ions. Two ion propulsion engines are required to provide enough thruster lifetime to complete the mission, and the third engine serves as a spare. Most thrusters ionize propellant by electron.
