Hēki Superconducting Magnet Technology Demonstration on ISS
Sector: Aerospace & Defense • Location: Wellington, New Zealand (developer)
Source: IEEE Spectrum
Victoria University in Wellington, New Zealand, developed a superconducting magnetoplasmadynamic thruster system using high-temperature superconducting tape to reduce power requirements. The Hēki technology demonstration, comprising superconducting components without the thruster, was launched to the International Space Station in September 2025 and has been operated continuously since then.
