NASA will build a nuclear reactor on the moon

NASA intends to build a nuclear reactor per month by 2030. Its power will be about 100 kilowatts, enough to ensure the energy needed for the monthly base and equipment.

The reactor will contribute to maintaining non-stop operations, because solar energy a month is a little effective due to two-week nights.

Launches within the Artemis program will be used to build infrastructure, informs Noi.mdreading.

According to experts, nuclear energy practically remains the only way to ensure a stable power supply of monthly and, in the future, Martian.

Solar and accumulative panels are not able to solve the problems of long -term expeditions.
