Nasa wants to generate electricity on the moon using a nuclear reactor

Sean Duffy, acting director of the American Space Agency “Nasa”, intends to accelerate the creation of a nuclear reactor that can be used on the moon and change the partnership mechanism between the agency and businesses working in the sector with regard to the replacement of the turbulent international space station. These plans, which were mentioned in internal guidelines on Monday and seen by “Bloomberg” on Monday, represented the first major change Dafi made in the “NASA” policy since US President Donald Trump has appointed him as a temporary director of the agency. The generation of electricity on the moon is one of these guidelines, which the ‘politico’ was the first to be revealed, with the aim of accelerating the development of a fissions nuclear reactor that can be used in the future to generate electricity on the moon and pave the way for the design of a similar power station on the surface of Mars. NASA has previously granted commercial business contracts to design small fissions nuclear reactors, but the new guidance asks the agency to invite the industry to design a more powerful reactor, with the aim of the technology ready to start as soon as possible by 2030.

This guidance includes adjustments to the way in which the NASA contracts with the companies selected to build alternative stations give more flexibility in the coming years in the case of different financing levels. These steps come a few days after a meeting of Dafi with the head of the Russian Space Agency, Dmitri Pacanov, at the first meeting of its kind between the two spaces and spatial agents in the two countries since 2018. During the meeting, the two parties discussed the future of the International Space Station, which is the Topical Laboratory between the Russian space, according to the Russian space. “Roskosmos”.
