NASA's New Moon Base Contract Could Be an Out-of-This-World Opportunity for This Under-the-Radar Nuclear Power Stock
One of the specific solutions the space agency is looking for has already been made and proven by this company's subsidiary.
Overview
NASA is forging ahead with plans to establish a long-term Moon base. Last week, the agency submitted requests for proposals to meet five very specific needs related to such a mission. These requests include a means of extracting oxygen from the lunar surface, and solar power systems.
Perhaps the most noteworthy need, however, is a particular kind of nuclear power plant called a Stirling radioisotope generator. A handful of companies have successfully developed them, but only one company has successfully proven its design's long-term functionality for NASA.

And that company is a subsidiary of a relatively unknown publicly traded outfit.
