Bzzzt.. Wrong!

In a nutshell, fission is the splitting of the atom and fusion is the combining of atoms. Will you remember that?

Both of course release an incredible amount of energy (of the universe) but the bombs dropped on the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki are nothing compared to what they have today, known as thermonuclear weapons or H-bombs. The fission bombs (or A-bombs) of WW2 are now basically just the detonator for those.

Where else would you find nuclear fusion occurring, the Mowl?

It's a good question Mowl and thanks for asking.

So where does all the energy come from? 🤔

Well, with fission, in which a heavier atom is split into two lighter atoms, and in fusion, in which two lighter atoms join to form a heavier atom, in both cases the resultant is lighter.

So what went missing the Mowl? Yes, that's right, mass.

And now for the most famous equation in all of physics -

E = mc^2

E = energy
m = mass
c = the speed of light (^2 means squared)

That tell us that energy and mass are equivalent (and that a small amount of mass is equal to a large amount of energy).

That's about it, oh, and you need to ensure a chain reaction of course and then that really is it, that's how us humans end the world (as we know it).

Dan's talking shite about the stock market again.

I Told Olli To Buy Gold.

Fantastic. Gold will soon break 2500 dollars then. I hope he stays there because this boom in the precious metals will be historic. I expect slver to go well into the 100s
