Why is this cropped and scrubbed so that we can’t see who the original artist is?
That’s not how nuclear fission works.
That’s the toxic positivity people are talking about!
Can you cause fission with protons instead of neutrons?
Yes if they have enough energy (see for example https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-020-74045-5). What you won’t get with proton-induced fission is an explosion as the fission doesn’t emit protons which can go on to cause further fissions so there’s no chain reaction (unless you already have a critical mass for normal neutron-induced fission in which case it’s going to explode even without the protons).

So to make a nuclear bomb, all we need are some atoms and mushrooms. Got it, will try later.
