Consideration is given to a conceptual design study addressing the application of the SP-100 space reactor power system technology to a lunar surface power system (LSPS). Data obtained demonstrate that the SP-100 technology can be readily adapted to the lunar environment to meet the load demands of the lunar outpost. Particular attention is given to the conceptual design for a 100 kWe LSPS based on the technology and design for the orbital SP-100 generic flight system and an overall power system architecture based on the sequential emplacement of four 50 kWe thermoelectric LSPS units and two 375 kWe LSPS units.
