will be capable of generating the energy required to power the vital infrastructure and equipment needed during later Artemis missions. These fission surface power systems could also be scaled up to match the growing energy demands of larger permanent bases and will be an important steppingstone for establishing an outpost on Mars. Similar to long-term occupants on the Moon , Martian astronauts will need access to a reliable, continuous energy source that can also operate in a harsh landscape.
“Our experience on the Moon this decade will prepare us for an even greater adventure in the universe—human exploration of Mars,” said NASA's Associate Administrator for the Space Operations Missions Directorate Kathryn Lueders.
