The aim of this project in Russia is to supply energy to the base being built on the moon. The news is that along with Russia and India, China is also keen to join it.
Half a megawatt of electricity will be produced
Russia's state-owned nuclear corporation Rosatom is leading this project. This first nuclear power plant to be built on the moon will produce half a megawatt of electricity and this electricity will be sent to the base built on the moon.
The plant will be built in 2036
According to Russia's state news agency TASS, Rosatom chief Alexey Likhachev said that along with the international community, China and India have shown great interest in this project. Russia's space agency Roscosmos has announced that work is underway to build a nuclear power plant on the moon. Russia and China are jointly working on this. It will be installed on the moon in 2036.
Why is this plant special for India?
Russia's first nuclear plant to be built on the Moon is also special for India. India plans to land humans on the Moon in 2040 In such a situation, this plant can meet the energy needs there. In 2021, Russia and China jointly announced the construction of an international lunar research station.
It is being said that this station can start anytime between 2035 and 2045. The purpose of this station is to do scientific research. Most countries will be able to use it. But it is possible that some of America's allies may not get its benefits. In such a situation, being an ally of Russia, India can take advantage of it. Let us tell you that India has also set a target of setting up a base on the moon by 2050.
