plutonium is something that you don't just mine from the earth. you have to make plutonium. you can make plutonium for a nuclear bomb in basically two different ways. in nuclear power plants, after fuel rods uranium fuel rods are used to make nuclear power, they are called spent fuel rods. when they are spent fuel rods, they are freaking radioactive as all get out. that's part of why it's so anxiety producing to see the spent fuel rod pool totally screwed up at the fukushima power plant. that blew up in japan in 2011. spent fuel rods honestly are a little scary. they're a huge, dangerous nuclear waste problem and there are a ton of them at nuclear reactors all over the world that are just being piled up and piled up and piled up with nowhere to put them and everybody just hopes they are going to be safe. those spent fuel rods can also be reprocessed into plutonium. which can make a nuclear bomb. yay. that is another part of the deal with iran today. iran apparently does not now have the technology or know-how to make plutonium used in a bomb by reprocessing spent fuel from n
