Hi:

I'm Chris and I am a science fiction author who is also an advocate of
the use of nuclear propulsion for exploring the solar system. I have a
novel due to be released in January that makes extensive use of both
the NERVA nuclear rocket motor and Orion, which is propelled by
exploding nulcear bombs behind a massive blast plate.

You can check out some of my articles on space exploration, nuclear
propulsion and my upcoming novel at: www.freewebs.com/chrisbfla

Hope you find it interesting. The very idea of abandoning nulcear
propulsion in favor of chemical rockets is like scrapping steamships in
favor of row boats for trans-atlantic travel.

Chris B.
