Question by shish2kabob: how is the energy in fission created?
I know that because of the extra neutrons in the uranium 235 nucleus is why the nuclear force is weakened and is unstable, so when a neutron bombards it the bond breaks, fission products are produces, with 2 to 3 neutrons, but where does the energy come from? Does the energy come from when the nuclear force is broken?

ok this is stretching way the hell back to college but fission is happens when the nucleus is split into parts that are lighter than it is, producing your nneutrons, photons etc. if this winds up being correct I owe my science teachers a latte.
