An ion thruster or ion drive is a form of electric propulsion used for spacecraft propulsion.
It creates thrust by accelerating ions with electricity.
The term refers strictly to gridded electrostatic ion thrusters, but may more loosely be applied to all electric propulsion systems that accelerate plasma, since plasma consists of ions.
