Russia will endeavour to become the world’s first nation to build a nuclear-powered spacecraft for interplanetary flights.
The Russian Government has allocated 500 million roubles ($17 million) in 2010 for designing a nuclear engine and a spacecraft for long space travel.
The draft design of the spacecraft is slated to be ready by 2012, while the actual model is expected to be developed by 2018. The total cost of the project is estimated at about $600 million.
“Nuclear engines for spaceships are a very promising area. Such engines are a must if flights to Mars and other planets are to be undertaken,” said Russia’s space agency Roskosmos chief Anatoly Perminov.
