SP-100 (Space reactor Prototype [1]) was a U.S. research program for nuclear fission reactors usable as small fission power systems for spacecraft. [2] It was started in 1983 by NASA , the US Department of Energy and other agencies.
A lithium-cooled compact fast reactor was selected as the best candidate system. The material selected for the thermoelectric conversion system was silicon germanium (SiGe) with gallium phosphide doping.
DARPA, in conjunction with DOE`s Office of Nuclear Energy, and NASA`s Office of Aeronautics and Space Technology are jointly sponsoring a space nuclear reactor power system program known as the Space Power-100 (SP-100) Development Project. The program is presently in the critical technology phase.
The goal of the triagency SP-100 Program is to develop long-lived, compact, lightweight, survivable nuclear reactor space power systems for application to the power range 50 kWe to 1 MWe.
1 Ιαν 1991 · The SP-100 Program is developing a nuclear reactor power system that can enhance and/or enable future civilian and military space missions. The program is directed to develop space reactor technology to provide electrical power in the range of tens to hundreds of kilowatts.
1 Απρ 2003 · The SP100 space nuclear reactor was designed for use as an orbital power supply, lunar or Martian surface power station, and power supply for nuclear electric propulsion, with a scaleable power range of 10's kWe to 100's kWe.
