[QUOTE="Catatonic, post: 2776065, member: 7966"] Yes ... a nuclear bomb. Nuclear refers to the nucleus of the atom. [B]Thermonuclear bombs[/B] start with the same [B]fission [/B]reaction that powers [B]atomic bombs[/B] — but the majority of the uranium or [B]plutonium[/B] in [B]atomic bombs[/B] actually goes unused. ... This [B]fusion[/B] process releases neutrons, which feed back into the [B]plutonium[/B]-239, splitting more atoms and boosting the [B]fission[/B] chain reaction. [/QUOTE]
