I haven't seen anything associated with Prometheus that describes the system involved, but if it's a nuclear thermal rocket then there's lots of information on the technology at http://www.fas.org/nuke/space/index.html The other option is to use the space reactor to generate electricity to run ion engines or to electrically heat hydrogen (or whatever working fluid they want to use). I don't know of a good source for technical information on nuclear electric propulsion though.
