Orion Drive   >   Video   >   Fiction Project Orion in Science Fiction Project Orion is one of the great might-have-beens of the space age, and it is therefore no surprise to see that it features in many science fiction and alternate history stories. Here are some videos/movies/TV programs featuring Orion In early versions of the script for film, 2001 - A Space Odyssey, the spaceship Discovery was powered by atomic bombs like Project Orion. This idea was not depicted in the movie because of the difficulty of filming it, and because Stanley Kubrick was tired with nuclear weapons after making Doctor Strangelove. In the 1998 film, Deep Impact, the spaceship Messiah is said to be powered by an "Orion Drive". The Star Trek: The Original Series episode, For the World Is Hollow and I Have Touched the Sky, features a hollow asteroid used as a generation ship, powered by "Orion class nuclear pulse engines".
