[QUOTE]Originally posted by J: [QB] A nuclear power generator might be feasible for the vehicle that would transport a crew from Lunar orbit to Mars orbit [along with a Martian Landing & Low Orbital Vehicle--- perhaps something like the CEV which could carry the crew to the ship that would then carry them to Mars]. I believe, that the real advancement for space travel is going to be the rail-gun launch system. However, the real benefit of this system is going to come from a Lunar base that can transmit power back to an energy hungry Earth. Once that is in place, this rail-gun would be a much better option than using chemical propellant. Of course, reentry is still a mess, but it's always going to be like that. [/QB][/QUOTE]
