Opening Up the Solar System and Beyond: The Promise of Space Nuclear Power and Propulsion
Free
The U-M Saturday Morning Physics Program features lectures designed for general audiences, providing an opportunity to hear physicists discuss their work in easy-to-understand, non-technical terms.
In this talk, Dr. John Foster surveys propulsion technologies that can enable reduced trip times for robotic and human missions alike beyond Mars, opening up the full solar system to an in depth exploration and eventual colonization.
