Solar Electric Propulsion Makes NASA’s Psyche Spacecraft Go

I liked this line:

> In fact, the thrust is so gentle, it exerts about the same amount of pressure you’d feel holding three quarters in your hand.

It seems like so little, but with no atmosphere and with constant acceleration, it'll be going pretty fast after a few days/weeks of acceleration.

I believe Dawn [0] was the first spacecraft to successfully use this tech on a mission.
