KUBINKA /Moscow region/, August 26. /TASS/. The Keldysh Research Center (part of Roscosmos) plans to test a drip refrigerator-emitter for the Zeus nuclear tug on board the International Space Station (ISS)in 2024-2025. This was announced to TASS by the general director of the enterprise Vladimir Koshlakov at the International military-Technical Forum "Army-2021".

"An experiment is planned in the 2024-2025s," Koshlakov said, answering the question when the Drop-2 experiment is planned to be conducted.

According to the general director of the enterprise, the project documentation has already been developed. Now the Keldysh Center is starting to manufacture models and scientific equipment for conducting an experiment in the multi-purpose laboratory module "Science". The experiment, the CEO said, is not a long-term one. "The droplet generation system will start working - its efficiency and the possibilities of functioning on large-sized spacecraft will become clear," he concluded.

In December last year, it became known that Roscosmos and the Arsenal Design Bureau signed a contract for the development of an advance project of the nuclear tug "Nucleon", which will be used for flights into deep space. The contract value is more than 4.17 billion rubles. It was concluded on December 10. The end date of the contract is indicated as July 28, 2024.

At the end of December, the general director of Roscosmos, Dmitry Rogozin, announced that the device would be called "Zeus".
