The Demonstration Rocket for Agile Cislunar Operations (DRACO) is an under-development spacecraft by Lockheed Martin in partnership with BWX Technologies as part of a DARPA program to be demonstrated in space in 2027. The experimental vehicle is planned to be reusable and will utilize next-generation nuclear thermal propulsion technology and low-enriched uranium, with the U.S. Space Force to provide the launch. In 2023, NASA joined the DARPA program in developing the nuclear thermal rocket (NTR)
