It is not known if NASA is still researching nuclear rocket engines. But that was certainly the case in the early 1970s. This set includes rare material of the NERVA programme (Nuclear Engine for Rocket Vehicle Application): three NASA photos of tests in the Nevada desert, and a NASA Factsheet (8th March 1971) of 14 A-4 pages. Great material for historians who want to know all about it!
