Description The most common use of a nuclear reactor is to generate electricity. An enormous amount of heat is created by splitting uranium atoms. The heat is then used to generate steam that turns a turbine, generating electricity. This process is known as nuclear fission. Nuclear reactors are also used to produce plutonium and radioactive isotopes for medical purposes. In addition, they are used to produce nuclear weapons. What is a fission reaction? A fission reaction is the process in nuclear reactors in which uranium is split into two, releasing energy. What are the two major types
