Nuclear Reactor for Mars Outpost Could Be Ready to Fly by 2022
It&#x27;s such a shame that nuclear research stopped in 80s....
What are we waiting for to fund nuclear powered cargos?
I&#x27;ve always dreamt of nuclear powered cars but believed that nuclear reactors were necessarily too big.<p>This experimental reactor from NASA + DOE is far smaller than fossil motors! (not accounting the cooling part) 
What could be the expected price of kilo reactors?
Why would they cost?
Fuel cost nothing. 
Autonomous. 
Very small so few material costs. 
Can it be created at scale (fordism-like) ?
Can anybody on internet estimate an optimistic yet realistic cost?
Could this revolutionize electric cars?
