President Kennedy’s trip to Los Alamos in 1967 is framed as symbolic of the nation’s wartime roots and future space ambitions.

It outlines Project Rover, the nuclear propulsion program for rockets, its evolution from AEC to Space Nuclear Propulsion Office, and planned use as a nuclear third stage for a Saturn V lunar mission.
