This mod is a in-between normal and fusion thrusters, it tries to strike a middle ground where you not yet reached aquillo but already have your first supply-line needs.

You'll need Uranium-235 (aka shiny rocks), carbon and steam to create the needed fission fluid and steam again as an "oxidizer".

Here's a general comparison of the engines (including fusion) at normal quality level:

engine | thrust         | efficiency | consumption
normal |  9.9MN - 102MN | 100% - 51% | 6/s - 120/s
fission| 74.9MN - 250MN | 150% - 50% | 6/s - 60/s
fusion | 12.4MN - 2.8GN | 25% - 140% | 3/s - 120/s

The Stats are a bit misleading since you can archive 117% Thrust with the fission engine.
