NASA Proves Nuclear Fission System Fit to Fly
Testing on a kilowatt-scale nuclear reactor that could serve as the power source for crewed missions on Mars, the Moon or other extraterrestrial destinations was initiated by NASA and the U.S. Department of Energy in November 2017. Kilopower is a small, lightweight fission power system capable of providing up to 10 kW of electrical power, sufficient to supply several average households continuously without refueling for at least 10 years. For NASA missions, four Kilopower units would provide enough power to establish an outpost and provide onboard lighting, water and oxygen.
