Scientists from Bangor University have developed nuclear fuel cells, called Trisofuel, as small as poppy seeds that could be used to power a micro nuclear generator developed by Rolls-Royce. This technology could be utilized to produce the energy required for future lunar habitats, supporting NASA's Artemis program and its goal of establishing a permanent human presence on the Moon.
Scientists at Bangor University have developed nuclear fuel cells, the size of poppy seeds, that could provide the energy needed to sustain life on the Moon. The cells, known as Trisofuel, could power a micro nuclear generator and be used in a portable device the size of a small car. The team hopes to fully test the fuel over the next few months and believes it could be ready for a Moon base by 2030. The university is also working on a nuclear system to power rockets, which could significantly reduce travel time to Mars.
