The various propulsion options that can meet NASA's primary mission objectives of the Space Exploration Initiative are discussed. Technology developments and projections are considered for solar electric propulsion, nuclear electric propulsion, solid core nuclear thermal rockets, and gas core nuclear thermal rockets. Mission scenarios appropriate to the individual propulsion options are presented, and the advantages and drawbacks of each option are described.
