      @wayamayafey Funny, because JP is not even religious. Or at least he appears to not believe in God in the way that this guy expects him to. And he's left-leaning, but these conservative types just misrepresent what it is he actually stands for. Turns out that fighting against the far left does not automatically mean you are right wing - but of course the masses find it hard to wrap their head around something unless it is a pure dichotomy.

      Here's what people from summ3rland live off of as we learned and they made my profile.... Which isn't possible as you can see I have the pictures etx live a clean life. Anyways They attacked me because im too good and am this person the girls everything they got so mad they deleted and made deals with nagisa who as we know has always disliked me they've xalled me ugly and beat me up for years nagisa takatnai is the source of all this as she's left austin wakrentin untouched in her brother calypso path qnd life she is the worst person to exist... she can't handle anything she can't do anything she stole my brothers stories and no this is all new stories really..... ai allowed the denial even once back in the day as you see labeled I played every side really ? no.... I couldn't do anything etc its all est. You told nagisa takwtani stories you talked yo nagisa takatnai other then see what I've done discoveries and knowledge those people went to my profile executed their plan to " pads the bidtch " test" send in " y0 di3" they made me look bad say I won over them etc then yea deleted my profile because ei have all their ex gfs or something like that. it's qll est nagisa hacked my profile because she saw it was vulnerable. she had the support of p3ople they waited for thr que and account which was appernetly made I talked with ut nicely theyre " hockey2cool" I " talked with it nicely" see they'veframed me constantly when ive doccumented and uploaded 2verything anyways it doesn't matter theyre making sick deals for no reasons... it is est qnd nagisa takqtani qs always been that person trying to steal light she thinks that's how I have perfect eye balls ahhahaha to funny I am perfect jk but yea... they made me covky with stories etc theyre so bad it's ridiculous . deleted my profile ive just learned of this they just told me their plans and she made me def last night said my family will be woken up forever. I am about to shred mass amounts of paper to send my message that is my medical knowledge and using the words are bad. so its qll settled. just remember what happened nqgisa tqktani is q bad person... qlways has been. I never allowed her to get away with anything I just said etc she is the worst person ever the xist. remember the little brother is better. the little brother is better becaue eyes more compact his heart is stronger he doesn't get dust through him he farts better nagisa takatani has learned a lot of information she is beleiving this is my first body pain qnd well I've described the story it must be taken seriously there is only one medical advancement. that is how your heart works.

      Before the sensor was activated in early 2020, there was a lot of informatiin on the internet. Days after actuvated, the majority of this information disapeared.

      Best prevention

      Not really.
      Nuclear has a short lifespan according to cosmic scales.
      Earth used to be way more radioactive and rich in elements like Uranium. When stars die in supernova, they release a lot of nuclear material. That material begins the half life process the instant it is created.
      Now a cloud of radioactive material begins forming clumps of objects over eons in space. Those clumps eventually form planets.
      Our Earth has lost 98% of its initial Uranium due to half life’s. Life here on Earth evolved during a period of high nuclear activity. Earth had and still has natural fission reactors underground. The largest and most notable known one is in Russia. Enough nuclear material exists in a high pressure environment underground to generate natural fission. This process is partially responsible for Earth exiting a 300 million year deep freeze where 99.99% of water existed as ice on Earth.
      People sensationalize and fear monger nuclear because they struggle to understand it. We look at examples of moronic humans who mishandled nuclear as some indication of an unsafe phenomena and technology. When the truth is nuclear is not the boogeyman people make it out to be.
      We just need to stop being belligerent toddlers who believe we are above respecting nuclear. Treat it with the caution, dilligence and respect it deserves and you have an energy source that will carry humanity forward for thousand(s) of years, or until we unlock fusion.

Even with a lead sheet on the floor of the helicopter and a protective suit he suffered from huge amounts of radiation poison. He ended up coming to America to receive treatment for the cancer and tumors ravaging his body. Nothing could save him, he died shortly after. So many brave people sacrificed their lives to contain the radiation. They knew full well they were going to die a painful death. May they rest in peace.

    So recent spikes in neutron detection are actually evidence that the real danger is declining. Previously water was leaking in and had the effect of increasing chain reactions as it slowed emitted neutrons. Reducing neutron detection outside but increasing heat generation in the fissile material. The new protective cover is preventing additional water from getting in and as the old water evaporates, reactions slow and more neutrons make it to the detectors instead of contributing to heat building chain reactions in the fissile material. The downside being that spending too much time right next to a detector (years) could cause health problems now that more neutrons make it to the detectors.

    • @CommandLineCowboy
      @CommandLineCowboy 2 ปีที่แล้ว +319

      The RBMK reactor uses enrichment so low that water acts more as a net neutron absorber than effective moderator. That's why it needed the graphite. In the accident boiling of water created voids (bubbles of steam) that weren't absorbing neutrons and caused local increases in fissions creating instability. So absence of water now is increasing fissions. All the U235, Pu239 and Pu240 remaining in the corium will occasionally spontaneously fission. So neutrons will be detected at Chernobyl 4 until the corium is all removed.

      @@Flarflenugen well it depends on whether you're talking about fuel in an operating reactor, or fuel in storage. In a reactor "critical" means that your power output is steady, the variables (control rods etc) are set such that on average each fission produces one subsequent fission, IE the fissions per time is constant. Supercritical means that each fission is producing more than just one fission and thus the fissions per time will grow geometrically. And that isn't always a bad thing, as long as you're doing it intentionally; since sometimes you need more power than the plant is presently outputting. Subcritical means the reaction is slowing down.

The Wood River incident had the first civilian nuclear accident resulting in the death of an employee. It's a very interesting but sad piece of history of my area. I live 5 minutes from where it happened and in fact my neighbors father was the fire chief and was first on the scene when the call came out. The building was torn down and all debris moved out including soil. The property was chain linked off for years and as of 4 years ago the town acquired the land and it is now a management area with hiking trails and such. Again, thank your for all of your hard work of making these videos.

    People have irrational, emotional reactions to any change at Chernobyl because it reawakens old Cold War-era fears. This happens all the way down the line from the reporters reporting on it to the people they report it to to the people who just hear the story secondhand, and critical information gets ignored at each level.

    I was in Mannheim Germany for the first 20 days we received fallout. My dose meter read just over 45rad when I reset and stored it. I was out processing. I was careful what I ate and drank and had 2 days without a dose meter. I registered as double background radiation 5 years later when I worked in an assay lab. We passed half-life about 3 years ago.

    Because of water being able to turn to steam, in a BWR, you have what is called a Negative Void Coefficent. That means that steam voids decrease reactivity. But in an RBMK, you have a Positive Void Coefficent. So steam voids increase reactivity.
