Rolls-Royce is not satisfied with being one of the biggest brands in the world. aircraft engines.

The British company points in a logical direction: to supply engines for space exploration.

Specific, Rolls-Royce Holdings (not to be confused with the brand of luxury cars under the auspices of bmw) will rely on nuclear reactors.

The intention of the British aerospace company is to develop micronuclear reactors capable of long-duration flights like Moon And Mars.

The engine that drives Rolls-Royce

“The Rolls-Royce Microreactor is designed to use an extremely reliable and safe fuel system. Each uranium particle is encased in multiple layers that act as a containment system, allowing it to withstand extreme conditions.

This reactor will cause nuclear fission by bombarding the atom with a neutron. By dividing the atom, he will release energy that can control rocket.

Rolls Royce indicates that it is at the “concept, design, development and test” stage. In 2021, it received $600 million in funding to develop its space-based nuclear reactors.
