Abstract The concept of employing radioisotope energy for space propulsion is not a new one. Several approaches for doing so have been considered during the past decades, but all except one have thus far been considered impractical. This paper briefly reviews some of these various approaches, indicates their advantages and disadvantages, and summarizes the mission capabilities and the current state of the technology of those approaches which currently appear most promising.
