A failure of communism, not nuclear energy

we'd be further along the road to sustainable energy if it wasn't for the fear this created, and Merkel pointlessly cancelling all nuclear power stations

Nuclear power is safe and worth it. The people who are against it have other motives.

Yes, super heated boiled water for steam combusted electrical generation is amazing goy. Build back better for pennies on the dollar ....

All because a nuclear submarine captain wanted to prove himself to the politik.

They would've done that anyway, the KKKommieKKKrats don't really want "sustainable" anything, that's just a communist buzzword.

'sustainable' is what every rational person wants

it doesn't matter how we get there or how much of a gravy train the democrats will ride along the way, it still has to happen

Trump behaved like a moron for creating the idea that it's somehow a 'bad thing', rather than a 'difficult thing that needs managing' Trump has no long term picture

Speak for yourself.

Fuck "sustainable" and the rest of your socialcommunistic bullshit.

What do you consider "sustainable"? Electric cars? Solar power? Wind? NONE of these things are "sustainable".

Anti nuke propaganda was bolsheviks propaganda from cold war

Remember when communism fucked up Fukushima?

That was a natural disaster, level 9 earthquakes are rare, that was japan's first I think?

Now did they wear their paper masks?

I mean, radiation is nothing compared to the "deadliest virus in the world".

Sure they had all that equipment on, but what protected them from the "covid"?

[–] 3 pts

They are dead now, probably from the Covid because they didn't have the masks back then.

[–] 1 pt

So you're saying "the covid" has the ability to time travel?

The covid is scary.

The next variant will be able to phase into other dimensions. All planes of existence will need 12 more boosters to flatten the curve.

The 1993 date doesnt seem right. The Elephant's Foot was still pretty hot in 1996: https://www.physicsforums.com/attachments/chernobyl-elephants-foot-jpg.159172/

Super cool video though.

It was either 1993 or 1997. Maybe 1997. I remember this was a crew tasked with evaluating the rubble and radiation in preparation for the New Safe Confinement.

What is it with the name “The Elephant’s Foot” that’s so foreboding? It’s somethin

[–] 1 pt

It looks a bit like one.

[–] 0 pt

Yep, of course. More so a reference to a large, God-created beast vs a huge manmade problem. I may be other thinking while over drinking

Neat, thanks for posting

Damn, they went down there... When you think robots ended up crippled/malfunctioning because of radiation exposure... Think of what it's going to be for a human body

[–] 2 pts

It's gotten much better over time as the radiation decayed.

The material making up the Elephant's Foot had burned through at least 2 m (6.6 ft) of reinforced concrete, then flowed through pipes and fissures and down a hallway to reach its current location

Crazy to even comprehend that.

Seems like a prime source of nuclear material to mine.

The problem is the difficulty handling it, also any plutonium-239 in most spent fuel is contaminated with plutonium 238 and 240 making it too impure for use in a bomb, wouldn't be weapons grade. Also the enrichment level of the uranium used in RBMK reactors was very low. They could get away with 3% enrichment because they used graphite as the moderator.

What white specs you mean the snowflakes on the site?

[–] 3 pts

Yes, that's AOU giving you radiation poisoning over the internet.

Yeah, that AOU dude is a colossal faggot.

The snowflakes are clickable.

No that is a direct poisoning of the mind and does not make white dots on the video CCD
