    Both create energy. Both require atoms.

    Fission is ripping the atoms apart, fusion is forcing them together. Fission takes less energy because it's easier to rip unstable atoms apart but pushing two atoms that have similar charges together is extremely hard. Fission is currently mainstream on earth, but fusion is known for taking place within stars.
