“Thorium is what’s going to get astronauts to Mars and beyond.”

Thorium is what’s going to get astronauts to Mars and beyond.? Uranium could have gotten us there in the 1970's. NASA had developed a successful nuclear upper stage engine.
These days they are looking at developing a plasma engine that could get us there in two months.
