Click the checkboxes to disable/enable the displays. Science: Nuclear fission is an incredibly efficient and relatively clean way to make a lot of energy. In nuclear power plants, a neutron is fired at Uranium-235, an extremely unstable isotope. When the neutron gets forcefully added to its nucleus, it becomes unstable enough to split apart. The result is two byproducts*, 3 neutrons, and energy (c…
