Content: Nuclear fission or radioactive decay systems are used to generate heat or electricity through radioisotope thermoelectric generators commonly used for space probes. The chemical element from which nuclear energy is extracted in these cases is the Plutonium-238 . There are several expeditions that have been carried out with these devices: the Cassini mission to Saturn, the Galileo mission to Jupiter and the New Horizons to Pluto mission. The last space experiment that was carried out with this method was the launching of the vehicle Curiosity, within the researches that are being developed around the Planet Mars. The latter is much larger than the previous ones and is capable of producing more electricity than can produce the solar panels, according to the World Nuclear Association. 10- Nuclear weapons
The war industry has always been one of the first to be updated in the field of new techniques and technologies. In the case of nuclear power was not going to be less. There are two types of nuclear weapons, those that use this source as a propulsion to produce heat, electricity in different devices or those that directly seek the explosion. In that sense, it is possible to distinguish between means of transport like the military airplanes or the well-known one atomic bomb Which generates a sustained chain of nuclear reactions.
