Single session event
This seminar will feature the crucial role that nuclear power must play if there is to be a manned Mars mission. We'll explore not only the various propulsion options by NASA mission planners, but also the need for an energy-producing nuclear plant for the far reaches of space in order to provide electricity and fuel for the return trip.
