Abstract The flight heritage for ECAPS’ propulsion technology based of Ammonium DiNitramide (ADN), started 2010 with a successful 5 years on orbit demonstration mission of the PRISMA satellite. Since 2016, launches of satellites from 3 different continents continues to add to the flight heritage. Thirteen SkySat earth observation satellites with ADN‐based propulsion have added more than 28 years of accumulated flight heritage for LMP‐103S and ECAPS’ 1 N HPGP thrusters.
