US has just changed the game. They are building a nuclear thermal rocket that makes current technology look like a steam engine. By blasting liquid hydrogen through a nuclear reactor, we can now reach Mars faster than ever before. Is this the key to winning the space race against China? We dive into the DRACO program and the physics of the atomic drive. Watch to know what is a nuclear thermal rocket?
