uranium-235 atom absorbs a bombarding neutron, causing its nucleus to split apart into two atoms of lighter mass. At the same time, the fission reaction releases thermal and radiant energy, as well as releasing more neutrons. The newly released neutrons go on to bombard other uranium atoms, and the process repeats itself over and over.
But neptunium 239 is also unstable and soon generates another electron, adding a second proton to the nucleus to become plutonium. This was the material that would be used to build the world's first atomic bomb.
