Romashka reactor

The Romashka reactor was a Soviet experimental nuclear reactor. It began operation in 1964, and was developed by the Kurchatov Institute of Atomic Energy. The reactor used direct thermoelectric conversion to create electricity, rather than heating water to drive a turbine. It is thus similar to a radioisotope thermoelectric generator, but higher power. The Romashka reactor was developed with the intention of using nuclear power in space satellites, but was superseded by the more powerful BES-5 r
