This report deals with the hearing on space nuclear power systems. From both civilian and defense perspectives, this Nation's space activities of the future will place greater demands upon the on-board electric power supply systems. The activities to be accomplished within the framework of the triagency agreement among DOE, NASA, and DARPA are reviewed. The status of the US technology base is presented in space reactor systems research and development from the viewpoint of a NASA laboratory, two DOE laboratories, and the principal industry participants in the Department's recent technology assessment study.
