By the time they return to our cosmic neighbor by around 2025, the exploration landscape will be very different due to wide-ranging technological advances.the Department of Energy NASA asks private companies to help with nuclear lunar power for a fission surface power system that could be ready to launch within a decade for a demonstration on the Moon.
NASA points out that the system should be able to operate autonomously from the deck of a lunar lander or rover. It says it wants to test fission reactors on the Moon because they are reliable, and they can operate at any time, including lunar nights, which last weeks. The system it wants to take to the Moon would provide roughly 40 kilowatts of power, which it says would be enough to power 30 households for a decade.
The U.S. space agency also pointed out that work on the lunar nuclear fission reactor will also help advance work into nuclear-powered rockets, such as a rocket being developed by aAdvertisement Before that, astronauts will return to the Moon in 2025. Earlier this month, NASA confirmed that its Artemis program Moon landingsfrom their original 2024 launch date, partly due to a protracted legal dispute with Blue Origin over the awarding of a lunar lander contract to SpaceX.
