Introduction to Nuclear Energy and Power Generation

The video tutorial explains nuclear energy, highlighting its presence in the sun through fusion and its release via fission. It describes the atomic structure, focusing on the nucleus where nuclear energy is stored. The process of fusion in the sun involves the joining of hydrogen nuclei, while fission involves splitting an atom's nucleus, releasing heat energy. This heat is harnessed in nuclear power plants to produce steam, which spins turbines to generate electricity.
