Hans Ludewig,James R. Powell,Michael Todosow,George Maise,Robert E. Barletta,D.G. Schweitzer +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the Particle Bed Reactor (PBR) was considered for the Space Nuclear Thermal Propulsion (SNTP) Program and several new algorithms were developed for fluid dynamics, heat transfer and transient analysis; and commercial codes were used for the stress analysis.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Maglev Launch: Ultra Low Cost Ultra/High Volume Access to Space for Cargo and Humans
TL;DR: Maglev Launch as mentioned in this paper accelerates a vehicle to 8 km/sec or more in evacuated tunnels on the surface, using Maglev technology like that operating in Japan for high speed passenger transport.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
The Compact MITEE-B Bomodal Nuclear Engine for Unique New Planetary Science Missions
Journal ArticleDOI
High‐Performance Ultra‐light Nuclear Rockets for Near‐Earth Objects Interaction Missions
TL;DR: The performance capabilities and technology features of ultra compact nuclear thermal rockets based on very high power density (30 Megawatts per liter) fuel elements are described in this paper, which are particularly attractive for carrying out missions to investigate or intercept near-Earth objects (NEOs) that potentially could impact on the Earth.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
MITEE: A new nuclear engine concept for ultra fast, lightweight solar system exploration missions
TL;DR: A new ultra compact nuclear engine concept, MITEE (MI¯niature R_eactor E_nginE_), is described, and its performance evaluated for various solar system exploration missions.
