Dronă cu propulsie atomică: Startup-urile din SUA transformă deșeurile nucleare în combustibil militar • Newsweek România

U.S. startups are developing atomic-powered drones by recycling nuclear waste into energy, supported by DARPA's funding. This innovative approach aims to create long-lasting military drones capable of surveillance missions for decades without recharging. The technology utilizes ultra-thin semiconductors to convert radiation from isotopes into electricity, addressing both nuclear waste management and military drone autonomy. Prototypes are expected to be ready next year, with mass production already underway, potentially transforming military logistics by reducing reliance on fossil fuels.
