Ok /sci/ just work with me on this for a minute.
Every photon in the universe is identical, regardless of the source. Properties like energy and momentum are all a matter of reference frame.
Could we use any particle to initiate nuclear fission, as long as it has has enough energy for the interaction or the additional energy coming from the relative momentum of the uranium atom in a moving reference frame since they are all identical?
