Esd Bulgaria: Kids & Energy: Uranium (Nuclear)

Curated by ACT

Nuclear energy is energy in the nucleus of an atom. Atoms are tiny particles that make up every object in the universe. There is enormous energy in the bonds that hold atoms together. Nuclear energy can be used to make electricity. But first the energy must be released. It can be released from atoms in two ways: nuclear fusion and nuclear fission. Read on to learn how this nuclear energy can be harnessed for use by humans.
