“This road is long, and much of the map remains blank. The biggest problem is drilling miles through hot rock, safely. If scientists can do that, however, next-generation geothermal power could supply clean energy for eons.”

    Fission is a form of decay, but its relatively rare compared to the other more typical modes of devay.

    Spontaneous fission is relatively rare, because it is usuallly restricted to superheavy elements, which are fairly rare and short lived.
