Nuclear marine propulsion

Nuclear marine propulsion refers to the use of nuclear reactors to generate propulsion for vessels, typically submarines and aircraft carriers. This technology relies on the heat generated by nuclear fission to produce steam, which then drives turbines connected to propellers. Here are some key features and benefits of nuclear marine propulsion: 1. **Endurance**: Nuclear-powered vessels can operate for extended periods without the need for refueling, often for years at a time.
