With NASA's new chief taking over the agency recently, here's what NASA sees for the future of space exploration, along with its upcoming projects.
Nuclear propulsion and power technologies could unlock new frontiers in missions to the moon, Mars, and beyond. NASA has reached an important milestone advancing nuclear propulsion that could benefit future deep space missions by completing a cold-flow test campaign of the first flight reactor engineering development unit since the 1960s.
Cold-flow tests at NASA Marshall demonstrated the stability of a nuclear propulsion design aimed at reducing travel times to the moon and Mars.
