摘要: Herein is disclosed a propellant transfer system and method for refueling on-orbit spacecraft. The are configured to allow resupply of spacecraft be fueled by either bipropellant (oxidizer fuel) or monopropellant (typically hydrazine). particularly suited satellites not originally prepared as well but the may also used specifically designed refueling.
