Technical Session|Panel|Technology Research and Development
Wednesday, April 29, 2026|2:00–3:20PM EDT|Room 305
This panel will discuss supporting technologies that do not typically receive much attention (e.g., power conversion controllers, reactor instrumentation and control, radiation modeling and shielding, and in-space assembly of modular radiators for NEP). Each of these technology areas is a critical enabler of future space nuclear systems. The panel will discuss current efforts and identified gaps requiring more investigation for development.
