Russian space chief proposes nuclear spaceship
"Russia's space agency is planning to
build a new spaceship with a nuclear engine, its chief said Wednesday. Anatoly Perminov told a government meeting Wednesday that the preliminary design could be ready by 2012. He said it will then take nine more years and 17 billion rubles ($600 million, 400 million euros) to build the ship." See: http://tech.yahoo.com/news/ap/200910...lear_spaceship |

Pretty much in line with their previous concepts. Nucler electric in the megawatt class might make a viable deep space vehicle with some sort of ion drive, but it's not going to function as replacement for lauchers, which the article seemed to be contemplating.

It read kind of vaguely for me, but obviously surface launch would just about have to be gigawatt class nuclear-thermal, or even less likely, nuclear pulse. --Damon |
