The Nuclear Space Power (NSP) Working Group, under the United Nations Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space (COPUOS), focuses on the use of nuclear power sources in space. The Working Group aims to promote the safe and peaceful applications of nuclear technology in space exploration, including radioisotope power systems (RPS) and nuclear reactors. It facilitates collaboration among member states and international organizations, like the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), in developing safety frameworks and sharing technical expertise for space-based nuclear power systems. The group's objectives include collecting data on potential future uses of nuclear power in space and analyzing the safety implications.
