« Le bus spatial du futur » : voici le vaisseau capable de transporter l’humanité vers une autre planète en cas de migration forcée - HelloBiz.fr
La quête de l'exploration spatiale humaine a franchi une nouvelle étape avec le projet Chrysalis. Ce vaisseau spatial a été conçu pour un voyage vers Proxima b, une exoplanète potentiellement habitable située à 4,24 années-lumière de la Terre. Un concours international a vu le jour, incitant les scientifiques à imaginer un vaisseau capable de mener
A fusion-powered #spacecraft could make the trip to #Mars 🔴 in 90 days or less.The roadmap identifies milestones in #FusionPropulsion technology to deploy fusion spacecraft in the 2030s, on par with the vast majority of fusion developers’ commercialization timelines (89% of fusion companies* anticipate fusion on the grid in the 2030s or before) https://www.fusionindustryassociation.org/fia-launches-fusion-spacecraft-propulsion-roadmap

FIA Launches Fusion Spacecraft Propulsion Roadmap - Fusion Industry Association
Fusion has the potential to revolutionize space propulsion as we know it. One leg of a mission to Mars using conventional chemical propulsion can take up to nine months. In contrast, a fusion-powered spacecraft could make the trip in 90 days or less.
“While we are still some years away from making #fusion energy a viable technology for #PowerGeneration on Earth, we don’t need to wait to start using this power source for #SpacecraftPropulsion” https://edition.cnn.com/science/nuclear-powered-rocket-pulsar-space-spc/index.html

Nuclear-powered rocket concept could cut journey time to Mars in half
British startup Pulsar Fusion has unveiled Sunbird, a space rocket concept designed to meet spacecraft in orbit, attach to them, and carry them to their destination at breakneck speed using nuclear fusion.
#Space 🌌 is a far more logical, sensible place to do #fusion, because that’s where it wants to happen anyway. In 📆 2027, we’re going to send a small part of #Sunbird in #orbit. The first #functional Sunbird will be ready four to five years later. Sunbird could deliver #cargo to #Mars 🔴 in under six months https://edition.cnn.com/science/nuclear-powered-rocket-pulsar-space-spc/index.html
