大功率霍尔电推进研究进展（英文）

High power Hall electric propulsion technology is a very competitive electric propulsion technology for future large space missions such as large GEO satellites, manned space programs, deep space explorations, cargo ships, space tugs. Based on the experience of more than 20 years in research and development of Hall electric propulsion, the Shanghai Institute of Space Propulsion(SISP) has developed 3 high power Hall thrusters, i.e., the 10 kW class HET-500, 20 kW class HET-1000, and 50 kW class HET-3000. This paper presents the development status of the high power( ≥ 10 kW) Hall electric propulsion at SISP, including tests of 3 high power Hall thrusters in the power range from 10 kW to 50 kW, the qualification of a single string of a 10 kW Hall electric propulsion system, and the study of a cluster of two 1.35 kW HET-80 Hall thrusters to understand the technical issues related to multi-thruster high power electric propulsion systems.

Development and Prospects of China's Space Technology——Will China's space technology be brilliant again at the turn of the century?

For China,at the turn of the century,how to keep the position of the space power,how to stimulate the enthusiasm of the space technicians and how to keep pace with the world space technology,all of these questions lie ahead of the Chinese people.So we may say China's space industry now is in the key stage.If the space industry draws great attention from the central government and the people of the country,it will have a brilliant future in the 21st century.We should put our eyes on the 21st century and prepare to explore space resources.It is difficult for us to keep pace with the times if we do not explore space resources and try to earn "the money in space".     

Achievements and Future Actions of Space Debris Research in China

JOINING IADCSpace debris (also called or bital debris) is offals produced accidentally and deliberately while people are carrying out space activities and are no longer serving any function. It is the main pollution sources of the space environment. The space debris may stay in space for a long time and generate new smaller space debris because of its breakup caused by explosions and collision which then increase the threat to space vehicles, especially to manned space fliahts.     

Risks Posed by Space Debris
