Big Energy doesn't want you discovering the untapped potential of radioactive bananas! This brilliant diagram transforms a standard nuclear reactor schematic into a "banana fission reactor" complete with an "enriched banana delivery sling" and reactor measurements in "medium sized asteroids." The potassium-40 in bananas is actually radioactive (with a half-life of 1.25 billion years!), but you'd need to eat about 10 million bananas at once to die from radiation poisoning. Still, someone clearly put their physics degree to good use designing this alternative energy solution. Nuclear engineers have been slipping on this opportunity for decades!
