Bailey was instrumental in developing a primitive "thruster system," the principles of which are still in use today.
Today, ships use this principle in thruster systems.
The Kraith just had a malfunction in their thruster system.
Lieutenant Maran switched off the auto stabilizing thruster systems as well, then reluctantly removed her hands from all other controls.
The pilot could select any one of the three thruster systems and either of the two fuel tanks in flight.
Due to a leak in the thruster system, the probe was put in a "safe hold mode".
The main thruster system is based on the same design principle as that of the Russian Mir class bathyscaphe.
"The thruster system," Gold said.
A reaction control thruster (RCT) system, similar to that on orbiting spacecraft, was also installed to obtain research data about their effectiveness for vehicle control.
Additionally, the integrated dual thruster system allows the pilot to navigate easily underwater.
