3D-printed storage tank deployed on China's Tiandu-2 satellite for deep-space exploration.
China's Tiandu-2 satellite has successfully deployed a pioneering 3D-printed storage tank, marking the first in-orbit application of this technology in China. The cold propulsion system, which utilizes the 3D-printed tank, has provided high-precision orbital attitude control during lunar orbit and has been the first successful application of a liquid ammonia cold air micro-propulsion system in deep-space exploration.
