NTP breaks through the limits of chemical and electric propulsion by offering up to three times the efficiency of chemical systems and much faster transit speed than electrical systems. NTP enables sustainable infrastructure in cislunar space and beyond because it is designed for round trips and repeated operations.
If you’re serious about faster transit, scalable logistics, and commercial-ready systems, welcome to Dark Fission and the era of high-performance space transport.
We are engineers, operators, and strategists who have led mission-critical programs across both government and private industry.
We understand that you can't navigate space unless you know how to navigate Washington.
We exist to enable faster transit, lower costs, and commercial viability across the next frontier of space development.
WHAT DARK FISSION ADDS
We're not waiting for the next government program to greenlight progress. Our system is designed to move fast—from prototype to flight demo within five years.
At Dark Fission, we believe in building what's possible—not just what sounds exciting in theory. While everyone loves the idea of fusion propulsion—it's clean and powerful, and it promises performance numbers that sound like science fiction—its theoretical advantages remain locked in the lab. Decades of research and billions in funding have yet to produce a fusion propulsion reactor that can function in the harsh vacuum of space. The reactors are massive. The confinement systems are complex. And the timelines keep getting pushed back.
Fission propulsion, by contrast, is proven. It works. It's been tested on Earth. We know how to control it, how to manage the heat, and how to shield it. And Dark Fission can design, build, and launch compact fission systems that deliver high thrust, high efficiency, and long-duration capability with today's technology.
Discover how our nuclear thermal propulsion system is redefining what's possible in space travel. Whether you're an engineer, investor, or agency partner, now is the time to get on board. Let's build the infrastructure for tomorrow's space economy.
