Yeah but who's gonna crew a tanker of highly irradiated water?
- joeyo 11y agoThe lowest bidder! In all seriousness, radiation shielding (necessary thickness of metal, etc) is quite well understood. It's probably not even an especially hazardous cargo compared to what most tankers haul.
- stordoff 11y agoWith adequate precautions (to name a few examples - shielding, crew dosimeters, crew rotation if more than one trip needed), I imagine it'd be a pretty safe cargo to take. I wouldn't be surprised if it was actually safer than hauling something like oil.
- jperras 11y agoDo you really think a tanker filled with crude oil is much safer?
