- Nuclear fuel contains fissile material, such as uranium, which undergoes nuclear fission in a reactor.
- The heat energy released by the fission of nuclear fuel can be converted into electricity in a nuclear power station.
- Unlike chemical fuels, which release energy via a chemical reaction, nuclear fuels release energy via a nuclear reaction, and have much higher energy density than chemical fuels.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Nuclear fuel article was read about 60,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 82 and blocks with 74: each hit it takes is cut by 30 %.
