>Hunting parties spent weeks scouring the zone and shot all the abandoned family pets, which had begun to roam in packs. It was a necessary evil to avoid the spread of radioactivity, prevent decontamination workers from being attacked, and put the animals out of their misery. A quick death was better than slowly dying of starvation and radiation sickness.
> “The first time we came, the dogs were running around near their houses, guarding them, waiting for people to come back”, recounted Viktor Verzhikovskiy, Chairman of the Khoyniki Society of Volunteer Hunters and Fishermen. “They were happy to see us, they ran toward our voices. We shot them in the houses, and the barns, in the yards. We’d drag them out onto the street and load them onto the dump truck. It wasn’t very nice. They couldn’t understand: why are we killing them? They were easy to kill, they were household pets. They didn’t fear guns or people.”

The reactor core is made of graphite. Graphite is made of carbon, like charcoal. This carbon is being superheated by radioactive lava. Because the lid of the reactor is off, this superheated carbon is also exposed to oxygen. What do you think happens in this situation?

On November 5, 1974, Silkwood performed a routine self-check and found that her body contained almost 400 times the legal limit for plutonium contamination. She was decontaminated at the plant and sent home with a testing kit to collect urine and feces for further analysis. Although there was plutonium on the inner portions of the gloves which she had been using, the gloves did not have any holes. This suggests the contamination had come not from inside the glovebox, but from some other source

Sounds like a success, that ground shaking explosion was just Igor's car backfiring
Justin Martinez
>measuring it in units of power is silly
Why ? Watts are joules per second, power is a quantity of energy delivered/released over an amount of time.
If a nuke releases its energy in a few microseconds, you can still give the equivalent in watts as the energy can also be measured.
Zachary Hill
Ryder Murphy
Anthony Peterson
Much more, but the reactor released even more than 33 GW, that number is the highest thermal power reading the SKALA computer could get from the ionization chambers within the reactor core.

Landon Butler
Probably looks better than my PC
Lincoln Powell
Yeah apparently the SKALA was flooded with water too.
They still managed to gather the magnetic tapes soon after the accident, that's how we know what actions the crew took that night and how the reactor core reacted.
Aaron Watson
no shit you can, but it's silly to compare power between two events that are separated by several orders of magnitude in duration
Eli Rodriguez
Don't you need the steam do be contained in order to generate enough energy for a big explosion? How would pressure build up in an open lake?
Adrian Flores
>The Party - It's the wisdom, honor, and conscience of our era
Gotta love Soviet propaganda. It's so cartoonishly over the top.
Austin Myers
John Cooper
The Trinity gadget released 92 trillion joules of energy. Since it did this in a microsecond and wattage is joules per SECOND, the wattage of a bike would be 1,000 times that.
So the wattage of the first, and iirc weakest, nuke ever was 92 quadrillion watts. 2.78 trillion times the power output of a nuclear reactor in meltdown.
Nukes, yo.
Colton Perry
They tried to protect it after the accident.
>SKALA system's security features were largely suppressed during the experiment so it won't shut down the reactor. After the explosion SKALA continued to operate and workers tried to cover it from water pouring down the ceiling. Most of the data recorded that night was garbage because of cut sensor cables. The system finally shut down at about 5AM when emergency power went out

Wat ? Doesn't make sense, the lower the amount of time, the greater the wattage is.

Fuck you, autoccorect. Also it would be 2.78 million times, not trillion. Unless I missed another three orders of magnitude somewhere.

wow dude, you're so fucking cool and edgy
Jackson Harris
It doesn't really make sense for a variety of reasons because of the different time scales.
However the figures are all public so we can still do some basic looking up.
A ton of TNT releases about 4.184 gigajoules. which if released over a second means 4184 gigawatts. Okay...so a 1 kiloton atomic bomb will release 4184 gigajoules, in a 0.001 seconds meaning it's generating 4184petawatts.
That should give you an idea of differences in energy between a bomb and a plant.

>October 1986 - To mark the end of the clean-up operation atop reactor 3, the authorities ordered three men to attach a red flag to the summit of the chimney. A group of liquidators had already made two fruitless attempts by helicopter, so the three men had to climb the 78 metre chimney via a spiral staircase, despite the dangerous radiation levels. Radiation expert Alexander Yourtchenko carried the pole, followed by Valéri Starodoumov with the flag, while lieutenant-colonel Alexander Sotnikov ascended with the radio. The whole operation was timed to last only 9 minutes given the high radiation levels. At then end, the trio were rewarded with a bottle of Pepsi (a luxury in 1986) and a day off.

>The village of Kopachi is buried, house by house. It was located 7km from the Chernobyl reactor that housed the control room and decontamination area in the months after the disaster. A bulldozer would dig a large trench in front of each house before burying the building and covering it with earth and flattening the soil. Entire villages would be buried this way
Ryder Taylor
Soon after the accident all SKALA computers were updated with more modern CPUs, the cycles now only took 3 minutes instead of 30.
Though the CPUs they used were soviet equivalents of intel 8080, mid-70 technology. The soviets were literally 15-20 years behind the west.
The main problem with process computers is to prevent an external attack via hacking. You don't want a foreign power to hack one of your reactor (look at what happened to Iran)
That's why we still use magnetic and perforated tapes for ICBMs, you can't hack a perforated tape.
Though reactors still need heavy monitoring, so we can't just have big old computers to do that.

it wouldn't but it would insulate the nuclear fuel and make it hotter, which would make it burn through the floor faster and into the water tanks sitting below it
Isaiah Ramirez
why are they incapable of explaining how an RMBK reactor could explode? isn't it obvious? when you remove the control rods, the neutrons are free to roam around and the uranium becomes super-heated in a split second which instantly flashes all the water into steam, resulting in a massive spike in pressure that blew the reactor apart.
were they really that stupid or did they not want to say it because of fear?
Hudson Wright
it will put out the fire, but the core will keep on heating until the whole mess turns to lava
the lava will melt through the floor and hit the water pools something something steam explosion triggering the other 3 cores
Chase Ortiz
why is the CEO of boeing still blaming the pilots for the crashes?
Gavin Harris
it makes lava, lava is hot
under the reactor there is water tanks with a lot of water, if lava touch that tank, water becomes steam in a nanosecond and makes an explosion that destroys the universe

At that time there already existed some good foreign devices allowing to measure the degree of radioactive contamination by not only gamma rays but beta and alpha. The measurement of mushrooms showed their radiation level was small. So they were washed and fried. When their smell echoed through the dormitory of workers everybody (even the most cautious) came to the kitchen. Two huge bags of ceps were eaten at a time. Since then nobody has been allowed to pick them up again...

My mom once told me a story about how my grandpa pulled some strings and got a case of pepsi for her graduation party or something. I found some of the old empty glass bottles in a shed when I was a kid. This was in the 80's in a Warsaw Pact country. People also smuggled jeans from Turkey.

>it was a red army general
That would be FIELD MARSHALL OF THE RED ARMY ZUHKOV for you, son.
Asher Morris
wonder if that explains some of the slags

Fucking illegals get better government support than vets, it's fucked.
Spoiler and sage for politics.
I'd like to imagine a scenario in which chernobyl happened in the US instead.
I wonder how they would've dealt with that without an oppressive government sending people into suicide missions to save the rest of the country.

What caused the helicopter to crash? Was it the electronic interference from radiation or was it smoke clogging the rotors?
Levi Ramirez
Not just some red army general, it's motherfucking Zhukov, the savior of Russia and most of Europe.
Wyatt Harris
A professor I had in Prague once told us that a pair of jeans she bought for his boy was about one year salary in the black market. Her only problem now was finding what to gift to her grandchildren cause them brats had everything already.

the radioactive material would get onto your tongue, then into your body, where it would sit for the rest of your short life, bombarding you with incredibly high levels of radiation.

What, about fission reactors generating both Pu-239 and Pu-240 ? That's well documented, RBMK reactors are derived from smaller plutonium production reactors.
iaea.org
Estimating the amount of plutonium in a reactor core is easy. There's a formula linking the thermal power output of the reactor, the plutonium conversion factor and the capacity factor the the amount of plutonium generated in a year (pic related is more detailed)
RBMKs are very high power reactors, a 10 MWth reactor can generate about 2-3 kg of military grade plutonium per year.
RBMKs can deliver 3300 MWth and generate more than a hundred kg per year. Reactor 4 was in activity for about 3 years when it exploded, so they estimated that amount inside the core at over 400 kg of plutonium.

Goddamn, at least they died being smashed into bits instead of slowly dying of ARS

Evidence indicates a prompt critical event. But any nuclear reactor is going to "fizzle" under such conditions. The fuel blows itself apart long before you get the yields seen in nuclear weapons.
Gabriel Long
Reminder there was no melting core inside of reactor seconds after explosion. Concrete plates inside of reactor weren't melted and even had paint left on them.
Fuel did get into the pool before it was drained and nothing exploded. People who saw the fuel wrote they saw some piles of "red clay" not knowing it was fuel.
There was no smoke coming out hours after unlike in the series.
No sand or boron got inside reactor.

Don't worry, I had it rough in midschool too
Nathaniel Young
No. Both Pu-240 and Pu-239 are fissile, Pu-239 is a bit simplier to use so that's what we prefer using in nukes. Reactors produce about the same amount of both, but Pu-240 gets burned by chain reaction inside a reactor (in old fuel bundles, up to 1/3 of the power generated via fission of Pu-240). When we create nukes we just reduce the amount of Pu-240 to about 15%, that's all.
But plutonium on its own can always be used in a nuke, "military grade" is a fancy way of saying that the purity is comparable to what the military require for their weapons, that's all.
Charles White
that foxxer made a mouth sandwich
Nolan Collins
True. But most people did exchanges and shit. You worked at the salami factory and swiped one or two and traded them for eggs with the dude who swiped them from his job at the chicken farm. I've heard a lot of people say that back then, they had money but nothing to buy and nowadays there's plenty to buy but no money.

yes, but third world country, we are having problems with imported things and they are overpriced too
and I am lazy, that is the real reason.
and my mom , that is ukrainian, doesn't like, so she never will spend a minute trying to make it, hehe...
