- NASA plans to activate a 100-kilowatt nuclear reactor on the moon by 2030 to provide consistent energy supply.
- This initiative is partly driven by competition from China and Russia, who have similar lunar reactor projects.
- Nuclear power will serve as a dependable alternative to solar energy during the two-week lunar night and in permanently shadowed regions.
- The reactor is expected to be buried beneath the lunar surface to shield astronauts from radiation exposure.
Nuclear power would open up much more of the moon to humans.— NASA on the benefits of nuclear energy on the moon.
