China and Russia think of creating a nuclear power plant in the moon
China, in cooperation with Russia, is investigating the construction of a nuclear power plant in the month to supply energy at the International Lunar Research Station (ILRS).
According to RCO News Agency, China plans to become a large space power by year 5 and land astronauts on the moon, and the planned Chang’e-1 mission for year 2 provides the ground for building a permanent and manned database per month.
In a submission in Shanghai, a senior mission engineer showed that the month -long energy supplier rely on solar rays and pipelines and cables for heating and electricity made at the moon.
The Russian Space Agency, Russian Rsquasmus, announced last year that it plans to build a nuclear reactor on the moon level in cooperation with the Chinese National Space Department (CNSA) to supply ILRS energy.
The inclusion of a nuclear energy unit in presenting a Chinese space official at a conference to the authorities of the country and the International Organization, which make up ILRS, shows that Beijing supports the idea, though it has never officially announced it.
“An important question for ILRS is electricity supply, and Russia has a natural advantage, when it comes to nuclear power plants, especially sending them into space, is ahead of the United States,” said Reuters.
In the future, China will create “Project 2”, which invites 2 countries, 3 international scientific research institutes, and 3 researchers abroad to join ILRS.
Researchers at the Shanghai conference also presented details on projects for searching for mineral and water resources, including possible fuel for the use of RS raw materials in Russia.
