Rostom makes an atomic breakthrough on the Moon: 5 projects of a nuclear power plant, the winner will be elected in 2027
Rosatom is considering 5 options for a nuclear power plant for the moon. One of them will be selected for further development next year," said the head of the state corporation, Alexei Lichchev.
According to him, a nuclear power plant with a capacity of up to 10 kilowatts should start operating in favor of the International Moon Station in the mid-30s.
Nuclear centers in Serov and Sanzhinsk are working on projects in the field of space - the same ones that participated in the creation of the Soviet nuclear project 80 years ago, Lichchev emphasized.
"Here we have no less than 5 forms that we are investigating in depth - from the direct conversion of nuclear energy into electrical energy to the creation of appropriate turbine facilities. And next year we must choose a form and start this work," said Chief Rostom.
In October it was reported that Russia, the United States and China had begun the race for the first nuclear reactor on the moon.
