I want to make my own company that has Nuclear Salt Water Rockets :marseyscientist:. The bonus is that they will immediately kill and irradiate :marseymacarthur: :marseyradioactive:the particles of the soy fricks non-stop ilovescienceing in the background due to being a rocket propelled by like a terawatt of continual supercriticality :marseyoppenheimer:

Or this one:

Thanks a lot for killing it, Kennedy

Edit, just look at this shit: https://www.projectrho.com/public_html/rocket/enginelist2.php#lswr

A single stage system described previously, with one crewman and five passengers seated in a capsule beneath a 30 cubic meter propellant tank, would mass 1,585 kg and carry 30,000 kg of water salted with 6LiD (mass ratio of 19.9), passing through a high neutron flux region to produce controlled thrust. With a 4,700 km/sec exhaust speed, the vehicle is capable of achieving (a delta-V of) 14,062.86 km/sec! Enough for a one gee boost of 16.6 days

With 4 days of boost combined with 4 days of slowing down the ship can cruise at one gee a distance of 1,171.28 million km (torchship brachistochrone trajectory). This is sufficient to fly to any celestial body out to Jupiter and back. Reducing acceleration after planetary escape to 0.416 gees increases boost time to 10 days per leg, 40 days per round trip, and increases range to 6,075.15 million km. This is sufficient to take us to all celestial bodies in the solar system, including Pluto, Haumea, Makemake, and Eris.

This basically solves the problem of spaceflight when done with Lithium-6 Deuterium Jetter Cycle process

This small ship described here massing 31.6 metric tons at lift off, with a take off acceleration of 2 gees, requires a mass flow rate of 142 grams per second with an exhaust velocity of 4,300 km/sec. This ship during lift-off produces an exhaust jet power of 1.31 trillion watts

A hop from Earth to moon would take 3.75 hours! Then a hop to Mars, taking 3.05 days
