I’m aware it’s not a bomb. I was in the radiation affected area in Japan when the power plant melted down. It doesn’t need to be a bomb to release radiation.
Yea, isn’t a nuclear power plant fucked, when they destroy the means to cool it down? I just think there are a lot of ways to fuck with a power plant. pls correct me if I’m wrong :)
No, there are a lot of ways to fuck shit up, but the main point of how these things are built is to make sure that the radiation stays inside.
A modern plant can have a full meltdown and not release anything outside the plant.
Three Mile Island comes to mind. It was a full melt down of one of the reactors (there were several reactors in the plant) and no radiation escaped the building.
The absolute worst case here would take actual knowledge of the plant’s systems to bomb things at the right times in the right order to create a half-assed dirty bomb.
The more likely is another Three Mile Island style meltdown, but with added radiation hazards inside the plant itself.
Don’t perpetuate the fear-mongering bullshit. Educate yourself. There is no reason to fear nuclear power. The entire world should be running on nuclear power right now.
Yes, which is why Tokyo is the most rad city on earth. The mayor wanted Tokyo to evacuate but it would cause too much panic about Japan and loss of face. So people just breathed.
Guess who invented nuke power? Hint they are light people
Guess who invented the station the Japanese build? Hint they are light people
Guess who was the engineer who helped the Japanese understand his own native technology? Hint they are light people
If I had said Asian instead of Japanese would you have not preferred that also?

Yes, Daiichi melted down because they were unable to keep it cool.

As a supporter of nuclear power… Please stop talking.

Source? What are the current levels? My bets are, other cities are higher on the list, due to natural background radiation.

If Daiichi taught me anything, is that you can cause catastrophe by depriving a nuclear plant of auxiliary power.
You should do some more research, because it’s nowhere close to being that simple.
Looks like neither of us wanted to write a dissertation… because of fucking course it’s not that simple.

What does race have to do with it… sounds like an engineer told other engineers how to handle an incident…
Homeslice edited his comment to say foreign now which is a reasonable thing to say
It’s got nothing to do with race, why introduce that? There were Japanese AND foreign engineers there at Fukushima trying to help.
If you would ha e said foreign I wouldn’t have commented you said white engineer and looks like you edited your comment so bravo good job
