The science behind nuclear power is the stuff of Sci-Fi movies. Imagine this: 100 grammes — an amount so miniscule a newborn baby could comfortably hold in one hand — of enriched uranium carries energy equivalent of 1,000 kilogrammes of oil.
At face value, its return on investment is simply mind-blowing.
Nuclear power or nuclear energy is generated from chain reactions inside a nuclear reactor, where uranium atoms (also known as uranium-235), split due to radioactivity, releasing huge amounts of heat energy in the process.
