Chernobyl

How many times this actor gonna kill himself

They're at risk if they turn into mutant zombies.

But once a person's skin and clothing are washed, his or her ability to expose others to radiation is eliminated, Caracappa said. "If they ingested or inhaled radioactive material and it has been deposited inside of them, there is no way that they're going to transfer that to other people."

Caracappa calculated that in order to deliver a radiation dose of 1 millisievert to a person standing 1 meter away, "19 billion becquerels of radioactive iodine would have to be deposited in the contaminated person." To glean that much iodine 131 from the Tokyo water supply on its worst day of contamination, a person would have to have downed 94 million gallons of water – an impossible amount.

This is honestly one of the best shows I've seen in a long time. One of the few instances where something you lot recommends is legitimately great.

like salty milk and coins

I was surprised they didn't have some suits or something. Even if it wouldn't help from a huge dose it might keep direct exposure down?

Was the whole thing released?

Time should be 1:23

So apparently caracappa never heard of neutron activation, a basic principle that tells us that any material exposed to neutrons can turn radioactive, something that happened to the people at chernobyl. Despite being decontaminated their bodies emitted massive amounts of radioactivity, enough to kill

To a certain extent some of the chemicals in our body are very susceptible to shit like that. Mostly Sodium and Potassium if I remember correctly but the amount we would be transfer to others from internal radiation is pretty minimal it would be much worse if someone who was not properly decontaminated.

you're basically a walking isotope. When you get radiation for cancer therapy, they tell you to stay away from your pets for a while.

>Anatoly Stepanovich Dyatlov
>deputy chief-engineer of the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant, and the supervisor of the fatal experiment which resulted in the Chernobyl disaster.
>he worked in a shipbuilding plant in Komsomolsk-on-Amur, installing reactors into submarines. He received a radiation dose of 200 rem, a dose which typically causes mild radiation sickness, vomiting, diarrhea, fatigue and reduction in resistance to infections,[1] during a nuclear accident there. His son died of leukemia. In 1973, he moved to Pripyat, Ukraine to work at the newly constructed Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant.
>Dyatlov supervised a test at Reactor 4 of the nuclear plant, which resulted in the worst nuclear plant accident in history. In 1987, he was found guilty "of criminal mismanagement of potentially explosive enterprises" and was sentenced to ten years in prison. He was released after five years. He wrote a book[2] in which he claimed that poor plant design, rather than plant personnel, was primarily responsible for the accident.
>During the accident, Dyatlov was exposed to a radiation dose of 390 rem (3.9 Sv), which causes death to 50% of affected persons after 30 days.[3]
>He died of heart failure in 1995.[4]

Not that user,

Not a nuclear engineer, but have related degree and have worked in and around nuclear reactors (though mostly pool type reactors.) I will explain in simple terms.

there are several types of reactors, and the RBMK uses graphite, natural (unenriched) uranium, and water to produce power. (and actually produce a ton of power). Water flows though the core (Which is Graphite and rods of metal clad uranium) and then is sent to a heat exchanger to produce power.

However, unlike most reactors, a RBMK has a unique design issue. In most reactors that use water, if the water is no longer present, the reaction slows down and stops, stopping the reaction (bad stuff can still happen, but it not near as bad.)

The RBMK has whats called positive void coefficient (some other reactors have this, but not as high) which means in simple terms, if water is not flowing though the reactor, it speeds up and has a power surge.

Water turned to steam in the core, which means that there is effectively no water, and the reactor energy (heat) production spiked, which produces more steam, and it causes a feedback loop. specific design flaws meant that it couldn't be stopped, and a huge amount of steam was produced that blew the top off the building. The graphite and uranium core was also launched across the area, and was on fire, spreading more radiation.

Several safety features were turned off due to the test being conducted at the time.

A radioactive element does just that: it radiates. When you have a controlled reaction, the radiation is captured and diffused (albeit with still some residual radiation above normal levels as to be expected). When a meltdown occurs and steam blows your shit up, you no longer have any of that protection or cooling system that keeps it controlled. That fission is spiralling out of control to levels that humans have absolutely no preparation for because we did not evolve around that stuff (in fact, life cannot exist around it because it's so intense). That radiation is like a superfluid: it oozes through crevices, it bounces off stuff, but due to its high energy it's also basically going through everything. It's an intense light. Whatever protection you might have around you would be useless if you are in the mere vicinity of a meltdown. But just imagine taking the full brunt of that by looking AT the meltdown. That's basically turning your insides into soap bubbles in seconds. Whatever time you have on Earth after that is spent in pain and agony as the flesh that you are made up of breaks apart at a molecular level and you can even think or function.

1. It is a airtight area, for various reasons including making sure radactive gas is not released.

Secondly since the power surge happened in seconds any type of "pop off valve" would not have the capacity to lower the steam pressure in time.

Hey comrades I'm going to get a better view of the fire anyone wanna come?

Spy satellites were actually surveying all soviet nuclear facilities at that time so we would have figured it out very soon

more like 10*10^3.6

it has to be airtight because (a) it's contents are radioactive and (b) it's using steam pressure to generate electricity.

Everything about Chernobyl is exaggerated bullshit. How could a building that large also be perfectly airtight despite people saying it was shoddily built? Shit does not add up.

Any under pressure steam system is going to have multiple failure points designed to relive stress instantly. What would be the point of designing such points if they were not able to do that in fie first place? Of course they would relieve pressure in time.

I think it varies from person to person. Some people in the show, like the first responders, probably had no idea how radioactivity works. Others, like most of the higher-ups, knew their head would be on the chopping block if they either disagreed with the State's narrative or took the blame for something more than a minor incident.

Nuclear fission =/= nuclear fusion

Why can't it get the GoT treatment? It's because it is a mini series and not a long-term show?

Oh and according to all the testimonies, the irradiated workers' skin all turned black before their deaths so expect some blackfaces :^)

user, the reactor area is airtight as a RBMK reactor operates in a 90% helium 10% nitrogen gas circuit so that any (Radactive) gasses released by the reactor can be collected, scrubbed, and stored till the short term radioactivity is gone. (as such gases have short half lives.)

No pop off valve is going to deal with a jump in thermal power from 530 MW to over 30,000 MW thermal in under 10 seconds.

the RBMK design is not awful, it actually a cheap, powerful reactor that can use lightly enriched fuel, modifications after the disaster made them quite safe (if less cheap to run as they required more enrichment of the fuel. )

>be spic
well there's your problem

Compartmentalization of information and fear of getting your shit pushed in by the oligarchs.
Imagine having to tell a committee of soviets that the reactor you were overseeing exploded, the same reactor that was meant to demonstrate to the West that the Soviet Union was a powerful and responsible nation that was to be respected.
You would be the scapegoat for a permanent national embarrassment to an already dying nation.

>Chernobyl was basically a miniature sun
That's a starter explanation, but it's a gross oversimplification. The sun and a reactor are both nuclear reactions that are self-perpetuating as long as there's a supply of fuel. And they're both very bad to stand close to, to the point of being deadly if you look right at them. So it's not a bad comparison to begin with.

The biggest difference is the type of reaction. A reactor works by taking very heavy elements like plutonium or uranium (lots of protons and neutrons) that are radioactive, meaning naturally unstable, and encouraging them to be even more unstable. As they break apart, they release energy, causing other nearby atoms to do the same. The sun works in the opposite way, by fusion, combining light elements (currently hydrogen) into heavier ones (helium). For everything up to iron, this releases energy also. It's much more powerful and doesn't require radioactive metals for fuel, but it takes a LOT of heat and pressure to get started - more than we can create on earth.

The other big difference is the sheer amount of radiation being given off. The reactor core throws off enough to guarantee your death in an instant... but the sun at the same distance would have vaporized you, and the building you were standing on.

They can't if you don't have any or strike them first so they can't retaliate.

One thing I never understood about nuclear-scale war is that in conflicts about anything other than stark ideological contention--in which you believed the opposing side was literally an adversary to all of mankind--why would you resort to such environmentally detrimental measures? You win, great. You've now created an uninhabitable zone of the increasingly used-up planet, and can't mine, farm, or expand to that continent for at least decades. You've effectively neutered a portion of your greater biosphere, and that's if the fallout doesn't progress to global proportions

Dr. Marvin Dickerson looks like alan alda.

The pressure was relieved by blowing the fuck through the roof, the scale of energy here is way fucking higher than what you can expect a failsafe systems to handle.

No they're still absolute dogshit, thank god the massive progress in computer technology allowed them to replace the old SKALA reactor process computers with much better ones to help the engineers operate them.

So the CIA niggers can't steal them + they're useless, soviet reactors are safe

you are using terms you do not understand. Containment is the physical structure around the entire reactor that prevents any issue inside the plant from spreading outside the plant (RBMKs do not have large concrete containment structures over them).

This does not mean that the RBMKs are free gassing into the atmosphere user. Do I have to post a drawing for you to understand?

>You win, great. You've now created an uninhabitable zone of the increasingly used-up planet, and can't mine, farm, or expand to that continent for at least decades.
That's why it's called Mutually Assured Destruction user. Nobody wins, at best you MIGHT get a pyrrhic victory. It's the same reason why it's such a good deterrent

They don't have confinements comparable to PWR reactors which are the standard in the industry.

Soviet confinements weren't made to contain massive leaks, hydrogen explosions or meltdowns unlike western ones.

Compare chernobyl to fukushima that had actual confinements, sure they partially blew up, but despite many reactors melting down, it's still not as bad as chernobyl due to that extra structural safety.

Fuck off soviet shill, producing cheap electricity doesn't make them any safer.
While they can run at 1500 MW they're limited to 1200-1300 for safety reasons, such power can be achieved by much safer PWRs

they predicted about 40-50k cancers over the next 100 years, something like that. I'm pretty sure 11 of the 6000 thyroid cancers they linked to the disaster (that's pretty much all they have been able to prove) actually died from it. Independent studies came to a death toll of less than 50 so far. It's bad, it's really bad, but it's no worse than something like Bhopal, or any of the other chemical disasters that happens every year. Chernobyl was cleaned up quite well all things considered; Bhopal is still toxic and they never even bothered to evacuate.

Just watched the first ep, the looming dread I felt in my heart most of the time (particularly exterior shots, of the firefighter scenes and the constant hum from the reactor) was intense, haven't felt this from watching something in a long time.

If money was the main concern we'd just keep burning coal user.

I am aware of that, I worked at reactors user.

Its just that even though they did not have concrete containment, it doesn't mean that the cores were not airtight with a closed Gas circuit

STALKER game is based off of a movie with the same name, STALKER, from 1979 (before Chernobyl in 1986). The movie is based off of the novel Roadside Picnic from 1972. The context of the Exclusion Zone from the NPP disaster and the super-natural elements (zones) from Roadside Picnic and the movie is where the game comes together.

30 years later everything has mostly grown back. Animals came back even tourist come and see. But in the whole area, there are NO MORE BIRDS.

They had to believe that the core was still intact and there was something they could do to alleviate the disaster, their guilt wouldn't allow otherwise, even if they knew the core really did explode and it was pointless.

Alright guys this thread is contaminated. We need to ev

Comrade what happened are you al

The double wham of

>1) When they realize how bad it actually is, they know that they are already dead men walking, having been in the plant itself for more than 5 minutes, nothing can save them now not even if they just immediately teleported to a radiation-specialized hospital hundreds of miles away from the site
>2) They can at least save other people. Either because they are selfless enough to do that normally, or because they understand reason 1 so they might as well if they're already dead, or because as the episode showed some felt guilty for the accident

And then to top that off you have the old soviet way of thinking.

This movie and this thread are boring.

This is a very dumb anglo mentality. Money means nothing. Look at the first world nations. All the money in the world but nobody likes living in them. Meanwhile, places in the tropics or Africa or China or Europe that are basically just farmland and villages have people that know each other and chill out day and night by the side of the road making jokes and overall love life. What really is "wealth"? You might even say it's power but what good is power if no one is willing to fight for you because they hate you? Bah. Wealth is but a meme being used by the few who still have control over your mind to make you continue to do their bidding. True wealth is the soul and spirit of a nation.

I heard a lot of military personal in the USSR referred to the event as the Battle of Pripyat or the Battle of Chernobyl something along those lines.

One of the men who looked into the core, had brown eyes and they literally changed color to deep blue because the radiation blast to the face was that intense

I'm glad that Capitalists have never made their workers do something that will kill them

I'm glad that doesn't happen all the time, that would be a fucking bummer. Imagine if capitalists bosses constantly cut corners and put their employees in danger, people would probably rise up against such an unjust and stupid system. Since no one is rising up, we know that this never happens in Capitalist's society

I though Chernobyl was a steam explosion that let radiation seep through

Yea that's what I picked it up from. Kino taste user. The interviews with the nurses was some sad shit

They are alike, just not very alike.

I missed out on The Terror threads. What was discussed? I didn't think the show was that great. Chernobyl is better.

Why does radiation fuck up the Thyroid in particular so much?

Anglo status: destroyed

Basically the same.

Mostly just shit memes like this one. Also, desperate waiting for leaked episodes.

The Terror leaked online before it aired on TV and Amazon, so most of the discussion was before it premiered

>What was discussed?
The show and things related to it but to be honest having weeks worth of on topic treads with quality discussion is such a rarity on this board. Memes were great too

just watched
this is kino
god i love jared harris too

yikes are you mad about it?

the worst is the helicopter pilots because they went in to test the radiation with actually useful instruments and realized on the first flight that they were fucked

within about 48 hours the pilots and crew were fixing their own helicopters with lead plating and vests to try and survive

soliders didn't know wandering around the forest would give them cancer, pilots could feel themselves getting sick

It's not necessarily radiation in general, but that most nuclear accidents produce iodine radiation, and your thyroid uses iodine to produce hormones. Your body naturally produces iodine for it, but the thyroid isn't smart enough to know the difference between stable iodine and radioactive iodine, so it will absorb the radioactive iodine faster than the rest of your body.

I agree the boss fight at the end was kinda silly. Regardless I enjoyed the show quite a bit, beats out 99% of what's on TV at the moment

Only people from the first world think that third worlders "chill day and night thinking about life"
The only time they do that is when they get drunk to forget their shit life. Then the next morning they wake up and work 12 hours to hope they can feed their family.

What you describe is something you'd see in a hollywood movie about friendship and shit, in reality there's a reason they all want to leave their hell hole. I've done humanitarian work and never will I exchange my place to "chill day and night", as flawed our society is.

Yeah that was the weakest bit. First five or so episodes were pretty good though.

It's the Soviet Union. You have to understand that the Soviet Union was a communist dystopia where if someone questioned the government they would be executed or sent to labor camps to die along with their entire family. The Soviet Union had secret police that would just make you disappear if you were seen to make trouble for the government.

People weren't in denial they were afraid to speak out because it could literally result in their deaths.

You're probably right, but in the USSR it would mean you are completely outcast from society and the people as your status as a communist would be revoked I believe.

Because if there was an accident, like the one that occurred, or an EMP, it would be protected in the safe and thus still functional if needed.

I think you are right of the perception the Soviet citizens had against the Government I just don't think the Soviet Union would've done something like that in 1986

Based.

It's a deterrent. The true value is the threat of the use of nuclear weapons, rather than the weapons themselves.

Maybe. The nuclear plants were kind of the pride of the government. I imagine there would be a massive penalty for spreading alarm or misinformation about one of them failing. So even if someone wasn't outright murdered their career would be over and they would face poverty or imprisonment.

So I think the denial was part ignorance and part fear.
