nuclear propulsion
Nuclear propulsion includes a wide variety of propulsion methods that fulfill the promise of the Atomic Age by using some form of nuclear reaction as their primary power source. The idea of using nuclear material for propulsion dates back to the beginning of the 20th century. In 1903 it was hypothesised that radioactive material, radium, might be a suitable fuel for engines to propel cars, boats, and planes.〔Some practical uses of radium rays, The Republic, Sunday, September 13, 1903〕 H. G. Wells picked up this idea in his 1914 fiction work ''The World Set Free''.〔The new source of energy, The World Set Free, H G Wells, Collins, London and Glasgow, 1956 edition, page 55〕
==Surface ships, submarines, and torpedos==
Nuclear-powered vessels are mainly military submarines, and aircraft carriers. Russia is the only country that currently has nuclear-powered civilian surface ships, most are icebreakers but one is a container ship. They use nuclear reactors as their power plants. For more detailed articles see:
