Is atomic energy renewable or non renewable?

Basically atomic energy is a non renewable resource. The source of the energy is the supernova that exploded close to where earth was formed and the atomic energy has been running down ever since. However if man could harness nuclear fusion (which he has not done in the field of energy generation to date) then this too would be a non renewable resource but it would last man for as long as it mattered.


How nuclear source of energy is man made resource?

When we obtain nuclear energy from elements in the earth like Uranium, what we are doing, is obtaining energy which produced by splitting up subatomic particles. So we obtain the atomic energy from splitting up the atomic particles, not from the uranium itself, which is a natural resource. Since the splitting up of subatomic particles is completely "man-made", if you will and does not occur in the environment, Nuclear energy is a man made resource
