Requirements for open-cycle gaseous-fuel nuclear rockets are examined for systems in which there is physical contact between propellant and fuel; such systems necessarily allow some loss of nuclear material; analysis shows that total fuel lost during propulsion period is prime constraint in determining containment requirements; containment factor is introduced to provide measure of fuel-containment efficiency; application to high-thrust (booster) and low-thrust (interplanetary) vehicles is considered.
