Air Breathing Electric Propulsion (ABEP) systems offer a promising solution to extending the lifetime of Very Low Earth Orbit (VLEO) missions by using residual atmospheric particles as a propellant. Such systems would operate in very low-pressure environments where plasma ignition and confinement prove challenging. We employed advanced numerical simulations to explore the capability of our laboratory ion source in overcoming these challenges.
