The White House Office of Science and Technology Policy released new guidance to Federal agencies establishing a National Initiative for American Space Nuclear Power, fulfilling President Trump's Executive Order on Ensuring American Space Superiority. The initiative aims to develop nuclear power systems that provide sustained electricity, heating, and propulsion for permanent human presence on the Moon, Mars, and beyond. This represents a major U.S. government push to prioritize nuclear technology for deep-space missions where solar power is insufficient, positioning America competitively in the international space race.
