10 KW isn’t much. Surely a variant of a small naval MW power plant could be adapted.
Have to send the fuel up in very small amounts in case of an accident in the atmosphere.
A lot of secure power would be very helpful on the Moon.

You can count on Biden killing the return to the moon and redirecting NASA at some underfunded, unachievable Mars program.

I wonder... with the high heat of the reactor and cold space, could a sterling motor design be used to power a large or many small generators?

Ha!
The best idea for a Moon-based economy IMKO is one that centers on producing alcohol. To sell as rocket fuel (wink-wink).
Hey, you’re gonna need a lot of plants to produce oxygen and food, they can produce other things too.

Will the EnviroMorons approve of a nuclear plant on the moon?

Yes! Without a space suit!

Don’t tell Biden, he will cite some non-nuke treaty to run interference for the ChiComs, since only they will be allowed progress if this jack wagon steals the election....

Never missed it. Now if I catch an episode it is cheesy. But all of the Anderson stuff was. Loved them all.
I was surprised Lt. Gerrad found a new career after Kimble was proved innocent.

FERC won’t even approve new nukes on Earth. I’m sure some enviro-whackos would sue because... climate change. OTOH, what a great way to store spent fuel rods. It’s not like it’ll raise Mars’s ambient temperature
