Carter /spit signed off on a treaty that killed the Orion project, which by now would have us moving at a significant fraction of c (speed of light). So I’m sure obama will sign off on something similar that will kill this. Why? Because they are both first and foremost anti-America, and this kind of advance is too much for America to own in their putrid minds...
The 1963 Test Ban Treaty and the 1967 Outer Space Treaty killed the Orion project.
In the 1954 Operation Castle nuclear test series at Bikini Atoll, a crucial experiment by Lew Allen proved that nuclear explosives could be used for propulsion
Sad and most likely correct with the current so-called leadership.
“Carter /spit signed off on a treaty that killed the Orion project,”
Orion was dead by 1965. Blame Nixon-Ford.
The US Space Treaty came long after the Orion was dust.
