The nuclear thermal rockets will take humans to Mars in 45 days.

 

The new nuclear thermal rocket concept will make it possible to transport humans to Mars, and back to Earth in 90 days. Nuclear thermal propulsion is not a new idea. In the 1970s' NASA planned for NERVA (Nuclear Energy Rocket Vehicle Application). NERVA rocket engine was the nuclear reactor. That reactor was in the combustion chamber of a quite conventional rocket engine. 

There were some tests for that engine in the Nevada desert in the 1970s'. But then the NERVA system closed. Nuclear thermal propulsion makes it possible to create nuclear-powered Moon and Mars shuttles. Nuclear thermal propulsion makes it possible to create flexible and powerful rocket shuttles. 

There could be two stages for nuclear thermal propulsion. First, the crew and passengers will shoot to the orbiter using a conventional space shuttle. Or they can use the laser-powered craft. Then the crew will transfer to the nuclear rocket. That kind of system can operate anywhere inside the asteroid belt. 

Nuclear thermal engines can revolutionize space missions. Those systems need lightweight powerful nuclear reactors. Those reactors might use plutonium that has a weapon enrichment level. Or some other highly radioactive isotope. 



If nuclear thermal propulsion uses hydrogen as the fuel it will not turn it radioactive. That means the nuclear-powered shuttles can operate from the Earth if that system can deny radioactive waste. If nuclear thermal propulsion can turn safe. It can use to transfer airplane-shaped shuttles even to another planet. And that system can operate from regular airfields. 

The nuclear-powered aircraft can fly for 15 years. And that makes them more. Powerful than we ever imagined. 




Plasma engines can be even more powerful than nuclear thermal propulsion. 


If the aircraft uses plasma mirroring. It can make the low-pressure area in the side where the craft shoots plasma. Those ions are making it possible that the craft can make incredible maneuvers. If there is some kind of low-pressure area on some side of the vehicle. That makes the craft will move to that point. 

The rumors say that the famous "Black Triangle" UFO uses nuclear thermal propulsion along with plasma mirroring. The idea is that the laser rays are making ions around the craft. And then the plasma mirror or magnetic field will push those ions away from the craft. That means the ions can operate for stealth purposes. 

Or they can be much more. The ions can make low-pressure areas in the side where the system shoots them. And that thing makes it possible to create a craft that can make unbelievable maneuvers. 

That makes it possible to create the nuclear-powered interplanetary VTOL (Vertical Take-Off and Landing). Nuclear thermal propulsion can give that kind of system abilities that no other aircraft in the world has.

MIT's tractor beam can make the new types of SASER systems possible

   "This chip-based "tractor-beam," which uses an intensely focused beam of light to capture and manipulate biological particles without damaging the cells, could help biologists study the mechanisms of diseases."(Interesting Engineering, MIT’s Star Wars-inspired ‘tractor beam’ uses light to capture, manipulate cells) MIT's tractor beam can make the new types of SASER systems possible. The tractor beam just hovers the nanoparticle in air or medium, and then the laser or some other electromagnetic system transports oscillation into those particles. The ability to make cells and other particles hover in the system makes it possible to create particles whose energy level or resonance frequencies are accurately calculated things.  That thing makes it possible to create things that transmit wave movement accurately and cleanly. This is one version of the use of a tractor beam. Modern tractor beams are like acoustic tweezers where sound waves lock the object in its cr

The new observations tell that the thunderstorms form gamma-rays. That could make gamma-ray lasers possible.

That could make gamma-ray lasers possible. The process has been observed by the NASA (Lockheed) ER-2 research plane, which is a modified U-2 spy plane. The gamma-ray formation in thunderstorms. Where lightning and electric fields release electrons that impact the air molecules and water droplets is an interesting thing. That thing opens the route to solving many mysteries.  "The general physics behind how thunderstorms create high-energy flashes of gamma radiation is not a mystery. As thunderstorms develop, swirling drafts drive water droplets, hail, and ice into a mixture that creates an electric charge much like rubbing a balloon on your shirt. Pos

Chinese innovations and space lasers are interesting combinations.

Above: "Tiangong is China's operational space station located in low Earth orbit. (Image credit: Alejomiranda via Getty Images)" (Scpace.com, China's space station, Tiangong: A complete guide) Chinese are close to making nuclear-powered spacecraft.  Almost every day, we can read about Chinese technical advances. So are, the Chinese more innovative than Western people? Or is there some kind of difference in culture and morale between Western and Chinese societies? The Chinese superiority in hypersonic technology is one of the things that tells something about the Chinese way of making things.  In China, the mission means. And the only thing that means is mission. That means that things like budgets and safety orders are far different from Western standards. If some project serves the Chinese communist party and PLA (People's Liberation Army) that guarantees unlimited resources for those projects. Chinese authorities must not care about the public opinion.  If we th
