Current chemical propulsion systems necessitate prolonged transit times for crewed Mars missions, driving the exploration of Nuclear Thermal Propulsion (NTP) as a more efficient alternative to ...

Space has a trash problem, with defunct satellites, rockets, and smaller broken bits orbiting the Earth at high speeds. The amount of space junk is only increasing, raising the risk of collision with ...

This relatively long transit time is a result of the use of traditional chemical rocket fuel. An alternative technology to the chemically propelled rockets the agency develops now is called nuclear ...

If we achieve advanced nuclear, antimatter propulsion or other advance propulsion it would be possible to achieve near constant acceleration. This would enable travel times to Mars in the 3-8 day ...
