The fission process becomes self-sustaining as neutrons produced by the splitting of atom strike nearby nuclei and produce more fission. This is known as a chain reaction and is what causes an atomic explosion. ❤

Two neutrons do not continue the reaction because they are lost or absorbed by a uranium-238 atom.❤
