... use of electric propulsion for near Earth and deep space missions has occurred due to long term research into understanding the physical phenomena occurring within various propulsion subsystems. This research has resulted in the development of hardware that is suited to a wide range of missions. The research undertaken ...

... with their own problems in the research. For one, not all of those journals of the pre-1900 period came with indexes and early proposals on “reaction propulsion” were consequently often frustratingly difficult ... -classification of “reaction motion” or “reaction propulsion” as modes of propulsion for “flying machines.” (Still another popular general term for these machines was “aerial locomotion” while their respective propulsion was referred to as “propulsion of aerial ...

... demanding. Propulsion systems based on nuclear energy sources, fission or (eventually) fusion offer the best prospect for meeting the requirements. The most obvious gain coming from the application of nuclear reactions is ... of nuclear energy sources in any engines conceivable in terms of presently known technology. Achievable propulsive power is a particularly limiting factor, since this determines the acceleration that may be obtained ...
