Nuclear Thermal Propulsion for Jupiter and Saturn Rendezvous Missions

Highly efficient nuclear thermal propulsion (NTP) can enable a new class of planetary science missions for deep space exploration. This paper presents Jupiter and Saturn rendezvous missions using an NTP system that will focus on end-to-end trajectory analysis. The complexities of Earth escape and pl...
