8 0

Both create energy. Both require atoms.

Fission is ripping the atoms apart, fusion is forcing them together. Fission takes less energy because it's easier to rip unstable atoms apart but pushing two atoms that have similar charges together is extremely hard. Fission is currently mainstream on earth, but fusion is known for taking place within stars.

Which of the following processes does our Sun and other stars in our galaxy use to create energy?
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

fusion reaction

The simple answer is that the sun, like all stars, is able to create energy because it is essentially a massive fusion reaction. Scientists believe that this began when a huge cloud of gas and particles (i.e. a nebula) collapsed under the force of its own gravity – which is known as Nebula Theory.
