Rover Postoperational Destruct Instrumentation Development

Abstract

In partial fulfillment of its responsibility to the AEC for the safety analyses of nuclear power supplies to be used in space, Sandia Corporation performed a series of development tests in preparation for a full-scale destruct test of the ROVER/NERVA space propulsion engine. The data from the full-scale test are necessary before the safety analysis of the nuclear space engine can be completed.
