Nuclear fission
Yes
Uranium is used as nuclear fuel in nuclear power plants because the fission of uranium atom release a formidable quantity of energy.
Uranium is needed for nuclear power plants. Cesium, germanium, and radium are used in nuclear medicine. Strontium and plutonium are two more nuclear isotopes (elements).
fission
Nuclear power plants are capital intensive power plants and hence it is more economic to operate them at high capacity factors (or as base load plants)
Indiana has no nuclear power plants.

Uranium (SOS?)
NO!
Used to produce electricity to power cities and towns
That is the main use, to fuel nuclear power plants
