NTR and VASIMR: The Future of Manned Space Exploration
Discussion of possible rocket technologies/steps we need to take if we wish to effectively explore space.
VASIMR Lunar Tug Concept
An unmanned cargo capability based on VASIMR propulsion offers significant cost savings to NASA and commercial lunar exploration programs. VASIMR can deliver twice as much payload to the lunar surface, compared to chemical propulsion, if used as a 'tug boat' between Low Earth Orbit and Low Lunar...

Conceptual Mars mission using 3 VASIMR engines
This is NASA's conceptual human mission to Mars using 3 plasma rockets (VASIMR), 3 nuclear reactors (similar to the reactors used on nuclear submarines). The reactors are extended on booms in order to minimize the amount of shielding required to shield the spacecraft. The large fuel tanks would...
VASIMR at Full Power
This video shows the startup of the VASIMR 1st stage over 5 seconds, the increasing power of the second stage over 3 seconds, a plateau of full power operation for 5 seconds, and then rocket shut down. The VX-200 is operating in a 150 cubic meter vacuum chamber, used to simulate the vacuum of...

VASIMR VX-200 firing for 25 seconds
VASIMR VX-200 firing for 25 seconds. Plasma diagnostics placed 50 cm away from the thruster exit plane can be seen glowing red hot at 1000 C (~1800 F) after the firing is over. The force from the argon plasma exhaust broke off a large piece of graphite that was used as a plasma shield for...
Scientists Firing The VASIMR Plasma Rocket
This video shows what it's like to fire the VASIMR plasma rocket, the highest power steady-state electric propulsion device in the world, located in Houston TX. Video was taken with the POV.1.5 camera which sports a wide angle lens. Two scientists sit at the command and control computer, and one...

VASIMR Ground Testing
This is a series of test firings of the VASIMR VX-200 plasma rocket prototype. The rocket's 1st stage (a Helicon plasma source) was fired at 14 kW using a solid state RF amplifier, and argon gas as the propellant. The video is slowed down to half speed. The VX-200 is designed to use 30 kW for its...
