If we go with the stadium metaphor and look at an the Uranium-235 isotope used in nuclear reactors, then we have 235 peas in the middle of the stadium and to split them in two we shoot a pea (Neutron) to crash into the pile of 235 peas and split it, creating two stadiums!

I'm looking forward to meeting you all tomorrow, here is a lecture on Post-Humanism from a philosophical perspective.

Your teaching team leader may adjust this. The proposal will be due on October 16th
