One of Idaho National Laboratory’s many functions is to create nuclear energy systems for NASA to use in remote and hostile environments in space like on the moon or by Pluto and Saturn.
This is what Stephen Johnson, the director of the Space Nuclear Power and Isotope Technologies Division at the Idaho National Laboratory, is responsible for. On this episode of The Innovators, host George Davison talks to Stephen about his work on the Mars Perseverance rover, the importance of communication skills and working hands-on in STEM-related fields, how we will get humans to Mars, and more.
