In 2015, the research in nuclear and future flight propulsion investigated nuclear propulsion in many forms and configurations. These nuclear propulsion systems are best suited for interplanetary travel. While there is always hope for breakthroughs, no practical ideas for fast interstellar flights within a human lifetime are showing promise. Studies point to nuclear fusion as one important option, but the power levels needed for such propulsion systems are far beyond our grasp with our current investments. Here, Palaszewski discusses initial steps for nuclear thermal rocket design.
