Recent reports highlight the strategic importance of nuclear technology as nations race to power lunar missions and secure sensitive infrastructure on Earth.

Reactors could revolutionise moon exploration, providing energy for bases and mining, but risks of contamination remain. The US has sensitive nuclear technology at a nuclear power plant inside Ukraine and is warning Russia not to touch it, according to a letter the US Department of Energy sent to Russia's state-owned nuclear energy firm Rosatom last month.

Al Jazeera English reported the story as "Why are US, Russia and China racing to put nuclear reactors on the moon?."
