Suppose you’re holding a small metal ball in your hands. It’s only about four kilograms, like a small watermelon! But guess what? Inside this metal, called uranium-235, hides enough energy to power a nuclear submarine for 30 years! 😲⚡
No fuel stops. No gas stations. Just endless power from this magical metal.
Here’s the crazy part: only one kilogram of uranium-235 can make enough electricity to run an average house for 3,000 years! Multiply that by four, and you get the secret engine of submarines that can travel around the world without ever refueling.
These submarines glide under the oceans like invisible sea monsters 🐉, moving quietly and quickly. They don’t need air like regular submarines and never need to surface to refuel. They only need food and water for the sailors inside.
Deep below the waves, their nuclear reactor , the size of a large backpack , heats water into steam, spins turbines, and creates electricity.
For years, they remain hidden, traveling thousands of miles, like ghosts of the deep 🌊👻. It’s not just super cool science; it’s a game-changer in technology and defense!
