It’s because the people interested in exploring and settling Mars are private citizens. Nuclear power is the domain of governments and/or highly regulated entities.
- SahAssar 6y agoWhat? You don't think national space agencies are interested in exploring and settling mars? AFAIK no private company or individual has ever sent anything to mars while national space agencies have launched or tried to launch 147 missions: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_missions_to_Mars https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_missions_to_Mars
- garmaine 6y agoC’mon, the obvious context here is SpaceX which wants to make a colonist of 1M people on Mars with solar power.
- SahAssar 6y agoThe parent comment said: > the people interested in exploring and settling Mars are private citizens which is what I argued against. Also I'm pretty sure the national space agencies would like "colony of 1M people on Mars with solar power" too, and looking at the progress made they seem closer.
