NASA's '1st nuclear-propelled interplanetary spacecraft' will send helicopters to Mars in 2028
NASA plans to launch its first nuclear-powered interplanetary spacecraft in 2028, a probe called Space Reactor-1 Freedom that will carry helicopters to Mars.
Artemis II has been delayed multiple times for numerous reasons, but there isn't a single part of this mission that NASA has not mapped out.
A spacecraft could plunge into Earth’s atmosphere as soon as Tuesday. While most of the probe will likely burn up during reentry, a few components are expected to survive.
