Nuclear Salt Water Rocket (NSWR) is a rocket that uses known physics and engineering and there are versions that could reach ...

Molten Salt Reactors (MSRs) are nuclear fission reactors in which either the fuel and/or the coolant is a molten salt. Molten salt is salt which liquifies at elevated temperatures and can store ...

Although to most the term ‘fission reactor’ brings to mind something close to the commonly operated light-water reactors (LWRs) which operate using plain water (H 2 O) as coolant and with ...

Chinese scientists sustain plasma at 100 million degrees C for 1,066 seconds in EAST, advancing nuclear fusion research.

Nuclear fission does not release the greenhouse gas, carbon dioxide. A controlled nuclear fission reaction releases one million times more energy per kg than a chemical reaction such as burning ...
