This paper consist of the cons/disadvantages of using nuclear power as an energy source. Nuclear energy is today generated in designated plants called nuclear reactors. Nuclear power is sourced from the heat collected from a regulated nuclear fission chain reaction, using either plutonium or uranium for the reaction. The nuclear fission reaction constitutes an element like plutonium or uranium being subjected to extreme pressures until its neutrons split. The splitting then produces a fission of the large atoms to create new and smaller neutrons and atoms as the byproducts of the reaction as well as radiation. The neutrons usually speed up due to heat and splits before striking other uranium/or plutonium atoms so as to create the chain reaction.
