Project Orion was a project to design a spaceship powered by nuclear explosions. The ship would eject atomic bombs, which would detonate and impact on a blast shield mounted on shock absorbers, propelling the craft. Non-atomic prototypes were successfully tested, but the project was ultimately made infeasible by international nuclear test bans and concerns about fallout.
