This 6:50 video discusses how NASA uses radioisotope power systems, or RPS, to convert heat from radioactive decay to electricity, creating predictable, continuous power for long missions in extreme environments. It explains isotopes, radioisotopes, radioactive decay, and how these processes can be used to power spacecraft.
