Description
This paper describes the potential role of an evolutionary family of advanced space nuclear power and propulsion systems (i.e. solid core reactor, gas core reactor, and thermonuclear fusion systems) in the detailed exploration of the outer Solar System and in precursor interstellar missions to the Oort Cloud and beyond in the late 21st Century.
