This is  the Michigan University Laboratory dedicated to the development of engines for space navigation.

-They design engines that operate by the Hall effect. They are small thrusters for maneuvers as well as more powerful or in clusters.

-Another type of engine is the gas plasma one. First we show the proposed and experimental schematics for the microwave generation -or power source- .
