I've removed the figures that gave the amount of heating produced because they seemed questionable.

My figures originally came from Adams Atomic Engines, but for example 107 Btu/hr for PM2A, according to this convertor is only 31.4 watts (that's not kW, it's watts). I don't know how this compares to 38,000 lb/hr heating quoted for SM-1A, a similar size station, but it compares very badly to 400kW quoted elsewhere for SL1, supposedly a smaller reactor.

So I've removed all the figures until they can be verified. Andrewa 03:32, 1 Dec 2004 (UTC)
