What is it about?
Nuclear reactors for powering planetary outposts for planets outside Earth's orbit where sun power is very weak, and some novel nuclear reactor concepts based on nano-technologies which may revolutionize the space travel.

Why is it important?
Without appropriate power or energy one may do nothing on Earth or anywhere else. With enough energy all the other resources may be obtained, and that is why is so important for space travel and solar system colonization.
Perspectives
It might shed some light on the importance of developing advanced nuclear power systems and applications based on engineered nuclear structures.
