That was the image I was expecting. I still have that old Omni issue (or Science Digest) that had all those designs displayed, back in the early to mid 1980s.

"Too damn bad it's not the original concept of an Orion nuke powered spacecraft. We would be getting out there a hell of a lot faster." Can you imagine what the nimbys and greenis and bananas would do if Nasa anounced it was putting a nuclear reactor on the pad in Florida to launch into space?
Gah what a mess that would be.
