In film and tv, yes, but if you submitted a print SF story in 1960 where you go to Tau Ceti in a week just by building a bigger rocket, you'd get a rejection letter because editors had some knowledge of the rocket equation & relativity. You'd be seen as an ignoramus.

>USNC-Tech’s commercial radioisotope heater can be incorporated into space exploration equipment like landers and rovers to provide them with the ability to survive frigid conditions where conventional heat sources fail. This capability is critical to preventing devices and components from freezing during the 14-day lunar night, in permanently shadowed regions of the Moon, and in other places where solar and chemical-based power sources are inefficient or unusable.
