AbstractAmong several potential future deep space propulsion systems, the two which are closest to realization are selected for closer consideration: solar-electric, and nuclear-electric propulsion. In particular, the paper describes a manned Mars mission using a particle bed reactor and Brayton cycle converter as power source. Technical details of the design and the mission profile of a 4-astronaut expedition to Mars, and a proposed course of action for project implementation are presented.
