IIRC we were incredibly lucky that Chernobyl didn't turn into a much more severe global disaster. What happens in a worst-case scenario meltdown? I know we have a very pro-nuclear crowd here, so I am ready for an onslaught of information.
- grogenaut 6y agoThe real disaster scenario is that you create a fission in the universe spawning universe in which you need a grand daughter which is provided by a doubly nested knot of 2 time loops with two variations each which self reinforce and end up providing you the grand daughter but continuously cause the apocalypse by disrupting electronics and quantum mechanics across the universe.
- mpweiher 6y agoHmm...Chernobyl pretty much was the worst case. And, like Fukushima, the impact of the reaction was much more severe than the impact of the radiation. [I looked at The WHO reports that were published every decade. Each one downgraded the estimated impact from radiation dramatically, whereas the health impact of the evacuation became more and more apparent].
- DangitBobby 6y agoDidn't they have to sacrifice some guys to cover some melted core in concrete to prevent much worse spread of radiation from happening? Or are you saying that didn't matter?
- mpweiher 6y agoa > b ⇏ b = 0
- DangitBobby 6y agoYou'll have to elaborate on what a and b are
- mpweiher 6y agoa: (negative) aggregate health effects of evacuation b: (negative) aggregate health effects of radiation
