More states are opening their doors to the reawakening nuclear energy industry as fossil fuel plants retire and electricity ...

generating energy according to Einstein’s equation (E=mc2). On Earth, nuclear fusion has been harnessed for thermonuclear weapons like hydrogen bombs. However, it hasn’t been successfully ...

The characteristic of stars, such as our sun, is that their gravity keeps the nuclei present on them so close and hot that a fusion process is triggered, producing a huge amount of energy. On earth, ...

realized that nuclear fission was accompanied by the release of colossal amounts of energy from the conversion of mass into energy (according to Einstein's mass-energy equation E=mc 2).
