Nuclear energy – Uses and abuses Nuclear energy is the energy created from the nucleus of atoms. The nuclear power is released in nuclear reactions which can be nuclear fusion and nuclear fission. In nuclear fusion‚ atoms combine together to form a larger atom. This is accompanied by the release or absorption of energy. Large scale fusion processes involve very high temperatures and densities‚ such as the production of energy from the sun and the shine from stars we see in the night sky. On the
