  1. #NASA is building the first #nuclear reactor-powered interplanetary #spacecraft. How will it work?
    The agency wants to fly it to #Mars by the end of 2028. Experts say that’s … ambitious.
    It’s called #SpaceReactor1 Freedom, or #SR1. “After decades of study, and billions spent on concepts that have never left Earth, America will finally get underway on nuclear power in space,” he said. “We will launch the first-of-its-kind interplanetary mission.”

  2. #NASA's '1st #nuclear powered interplanetary #spacecraft' will send Skyfall #helicopters to #Mars in 2028
    NASA will launch the #SpaceReactor1 Freedom to Mars before the end of 2028, demonstrating advanced nuclear electric #propulsion in #deepspace. Nuclear electric propulsion provides an extraordinary capability for efficient mass transport in deep space and enables high power missions beyond Jupiter where solar arrays are not effective.
