the sum of numbers of the spheres in the first three shells. The total is 238, the number of nucleons [sic] in Uranium, whose atomic weight is 238.
“Four of the nucleons on one of the square faces of the vector equilibrium’s closest-packed aggregation of nucleons, may be separated out, without impairing the structural stability integrity of the balance of the aggregate. This leaves a residue of 234 nucleoons, which is the fissionable state of Uranium-- which must go on chain-reacting due to its asymmetry.”
