I don't know about international treaty, but I do know that the U.S. has satallites in space that have nuclear reactors on them with weapons grade material on them. As well as russia and china are also supposed to have satillites with nuclear reactors on them...

First off, I want to thank you all for you input, and any others that fallow this post. Most of you point out that while you could, the big problems would be getting it there, and what happens if it falls out of orbit. I don't have an answer for the getting it there part, but as for...

First off.. this is a really silly question. Ok, yes, the wieght of the wheels can make a diffrence but in your senero there is not enough of a weight diffrence to matter much. As for who gets to 60 first, who ever is the better racer, and has the better engine.

What is more important to the development of science and technology and the furtherment of human knowledge: Physics or Imagination?

Ok, I am not the kind of person who likes BIG words, so this is all going to be simple. My question is this, what would happen in you polarized the haul of a spaceship say negitive(Doesn't really matter if its neg or pos), then generated an opposite field of energy behind. It would act like...
