Nuclear reactors designed and developed to power spacecraft after numerous tests.

Los Alamos Atomic Energy Commission Scientific Laboratory in New Mexico and mountains in the background. Scientists work with diagrams of nuclear reactors. Different equipment and nuclear rocket designs. Prototype of Nuclear reactor is made. Technicians work with KIWI experimental reactors. Towers and buildings in desert. KIWI reactor is checked in nuclear assembly. Reactor is taken to the testing area on a special rail car. Man works at a remote station to control the car. Liquid hydrogen is pumped into the reactor on rail car from near by storage tanks. Reactor tested on test stand shows flaming torch. Reactor transported for disassembly and inspection on car by remote control. Men use remote control manipulators for inspection. Exhaust gas from other reactor on test stand. Men work on diagrams. Narrator discusses next step as the NERVA program (Nuclear Engine for Rocket Vehicle Applications), a combined government and private industry (Aerojet and Westinghouse) effort headed by the Space Nuclear Propulsion Office (SNPO).

Animation of nuclear powered rocket engine system; Scientists at work in Atomic Energy Commission facility in the United States

Working of nuclear thermal rocket engine system in a NRX rocket, explained through animation. (The engine emerged from the NERVA program -- Nuclear Engine for Rocket Vehicle Applications -- a combined government and private industry (Aerojet and Westinghouse) effort headed by the Space Nuclear Propulsion Office (SNPO). Core of cylindrical nuclear reactor inside the rocket through which hydrogen gas passes. Hydrogen is expanded through the nozzle to provide thrust. Reactor works by fission of uranium 235. Neutron particles reflected back to the reactor. Rotating rods installed in reflectors around the reactor to control the heat generated. Reactors on test stand in testing area. Reactor transported on rail car. Scientists and technicians work with reactors in Atomic Energy Commission facility.
