Difference between Nuclear power and Spacecraft propulsion

Nuclear power vs. Spacecraft propulsion

Nuclear power is the use of nuclear reactions that release nuclear energy to generate heat, which most frequently is then used in steam turbines to produce electricity in a nuclear power plant. Spacecraft propulsion is any method used to accelerate spacecraft and artificial satellites.

Similarities between Nuclear power and Spacecraft propulsion

Nuclear power and Spacecraft propulsion have 5 things in common (in Unionpedia): Electricity generation, Nuclear fusion, Nuclear reactor, Nuclear thermal rocket, Working mass.

Electricity generation

Electricity generation is the process of generating electric power from sources of primary energy.
