  • About 3 billion years ago, when U235 was much more common, it did. Look up the Oklo natural reactors in Africa for an example. There were probably other sites too.
  • Manmade nuclear power reactors.
  • Manmade nuclear weapons.

Yes, fission reactions do occur on Earth, both in natural radioactive decay processes and in controlled nuclear reactor facilities. Fission reactions involve splitting atomic nuclei to release energy, and this process is utilized in nuclear power plants to generate electricity.

Is a chain reaction possible in a substance that emit no neutrons when it fission?

No, a chain reaction is not possible in a substance that emits no neutrons when it undergoes fission. Neutrons are required to sustain a chain reaction by triggering the fission of other atoms in the substance. Without neutron production, the fission process cannot continue to release energy and sustain the chain reaction.

Why is it called Nuclear Fission?

It is called nuclear fission as in this process the heavy nuclei are split into fragments (or fission products).


Is fission reverse energy?
