The traditional approach to space architecture focused on placement and position-holding, but this framing is now considered too narrow. Sustained maneuverability in space is becoming increasingly important, but it poses significant propulsion problems. Spacecraft must be able to maneuver reliably and efficiently to achieve their objectives.
The ability to sustain maneuverability in space is crucial for various military and defense applications, including satellite constellations and space-based surveillance systems. Advancements in propulsion technology are necessary to overcome the current challenges and enable more effective and efficient space operations.
