Description
Project Orion was a groundbreaking study from the 1950s and 60s, exploring nuclear-powered space travel! Conceived by Stanislaw Ulam, the idea was to propel spacecraft using atomic explosions. Backed by NASA, DARPA, and the U.S. Air Force, a test vehicle was even built and tested in 1959. But in 1964, the project was canceled due to the Nuclear Test Ban Treaty. The test vehicle now resides at the Smithsonian Museum. A daring vision that could've changed space travel forever!"
