NASA’s Nuclear Rocket Fuel Just Survived 4200°F – A Major Step Toward Mars
General Atomics Electromagnetic Systems has successfully tested nuclear fuel that could power future rapid space missions, including trips to Mars. Collaborating with NASA, these tests proved the durability of the fuel under extreme space conditions, pushing closer to practical nuclear thermal propulsion systems for both cislunar and deeper space exploration. Breakthrough in Nuclear Thermal Propulsion [...]
