SRO Meeting
Feb 10th at the
Edgebrook Field House
8PM
Program will be on
Project Orion
Orion is one of the great "what ifs" of the twentieth century. Today,
nuclear powered spacecraft seem like more than laughable naive 1950's
science fiction, but it might have been otherwise...and still could be.
Orion was a project aimed at discovering the feasibility of spaceships
driven by nuclear bombs.
The initial plan called for manned missions to Mars by 1965 and Saturn by
1970. After seven years of work, the project's technical challenges seemed
surmountable, but political obstacles brought the effort to a halt.
