Los elementos: el plutonio

Plutonium is a radioactive metal found in uranium ores, capable of releasing large amounts of energy through fission. It plays a crucial role in nuclear technology, contributing to a third of the energy generated by nuclear power plants and being a key component in atomic bombs. Plutonium was used in the first atomic bomb tested in 1945 and has powered space missions like the Voyager probes beyond the solar system.
