Re: Nuclear light bulb space craft "Liberty ship"
I read the article a while back and the only serious thing left to figure out is how to contain the fuel in the glass bulb whilst not melting it. I guess that electromagnetic is the way to go but for that we need high temperature superconductors with the ability to carry really strong magnetic fields.
I was thinking about acoustic levitation, but then I realised that we have plasma in the core.
But otherwise its a very good article and I actually have that parent site under bookmarks.
