Faster space travel has been the holy grail of space agencies for decades and a UK-based aerospace company says it might have a viable solution in the form of nuclear fusion.
A UK company plans to test a fusion-powered rocket capable of reaching speeds of up to 500,000mph, though they admit that the fact that nobody has gotten a self-sustaining fusion reaction to work yet is a bit of a stumbling block.
Buzzwords and no substance. Technologies like pulsed nuclear thermal or frag fisision rockets are more promising and achievable. Or just a normal nuclear thermal rocket like DRACO is a good start.
