Earth
scientist Max Planck first coined the term "quantum" to describe an
individual particle of light. Planck thought each quantum was
indivisible, so that a fraction of a quantum could not exist. One of
the more startling discoveries arising from Unified Field
Theory was that individual quantum actually could be split
into component sub-particles, much like atoms may be split through
fission. The energy released by Quantum Power is
several orders of magnitude greater than ordinary Fusion Power.
