A propellant storage system that utilizes an integrated internal lattice structure within the fuel storage tank(s) to provide additional strength and anti-slosh features. The internal lattice structure lends its additional strength properties to adapt the fuel storage tank to unconventional geometries to allow for better compaction and weight savings in deployment vehicles such as satellites.
