Purpose of microsatellites under 50kg-class development, is now becoming to practical and more complicated mission. At the same time, propulsion system for the microsatellites tends to be eagerly desired for their missions with orbit transfer. Therefore, we considered chemical propulsion is very suitable for the microsatellites and started to develop an innovative propulsion system for the microsatellites based on our policy of SAFETY FIRST and EFFECTIVE COTS from 2004. In this paper, we present an ignition test of bipropellant and its consideration, and future works and report on progress of a monopropellant propulsion system.
