I thought it meant that orcs were nearby.

I imagine the 1MW of heat plus all the neutron and gamma rays go along way to keeping the water clean. I imagine they also have to keep the water very clean as it's used for research purposes.

The water have to be clean. If there's any salts or unknown ions in the water they will over time make deposits on the side of the reactor walls, which will decrease the heat transmission coefficient, making the water less good at cooling. Most powerplants use deuterium (heavy water/D2O) as cooling and neutron moderator, which has to be very pure.

Nuclear reactors don't blow like a nuke, but that doesn't me they can't go "nuclear" and create a massive steam/nuclear waste explosion

@dick_kickem 420 IIRC that wasn't an explosion but a meltdown, still devastating nontheless

@dick_kickem 420 for the sake of the argument, the explosion was steam based, not nuclear. you basically drop a super hot rock into a cooking pot and close the lid real fast, it goes boom. technically the water/steam was radioactive, but it's not a nuclear explosion. so the explosion was not nuclear, then it was on fire for a bit, which was the main problem as far as radioactive contamination goes. tl;dr it was radioactive material on fire, not a nuclear explosion, the explosion was steam. basically the argument is: you got boiled in water, not fried in oil. same-ish result, one's slightly less worse than the other.

The individual reactor design determines a lot of the safety risks involved. That and waste disposal. Events like Chernobyl and even the more recent Fukishima incident involved outdated somewhat outdated technology and newly built reactors are said to be significantly safer (especially compared to RBMK used in Chernobyl). That being said nuclear technology will always have some risks - those risks however are often less than those of other power sources including hydroelectric damns that have killed more people than reactor incidents. I also think reactor design can be further improved and made even safer with enough research, we already have ideas on how to do this but don't have the funding.

@@0_741 what the fuck did you just said AKIMOV

Its not that nuclear technology is dangerous, as you said, technology is advance enough that something happening like in Chernobyl is highly unlikely.. The concerne is danger from natural causes, like what happened in Fukushima. We dont know what future holds, some catastrophe on bigger scale will happen sooner or later, and then we might have serious problems with those reactors and nuclear waste. Which also is another concerne, nuclear waste, besides Finland, nobody else permanently store their nuclear waste for now.. Waste is being hold in the power planet itself, or on some locations, but not permanently sealed and buried, and in that state is always potentialy dangerous..

@Hamburglar the exiled yup

Nuclear reactor technology definitely deserves its bad reputation. When operators are constantly vigilant and abiding by all safety procedures, everything's gravy. But it only takes one time for something to fail or somebody to make a mistake and shit goes south extremely fast. Both Fukushima and Chernobyl proved that. Fukushima even had safety backups with backups after them. Mother nature fucked all that up.

@@Rob-hv5zq Fukushima was a bad plant with very bad location and absolutely inadequate safety precautions for earthquakes and tsunami's.

@@Rob-hv5zq Actually stuff cant go down south really fast in modern reactors. Chernobyl was a catastrophe by design which was only able to happen duo to the use the nowadays very outdated solid fission moderator Graphite and the use of only 2% enriched Uranium (instead of commonly used 3-5% which is more expensive) so the catastrophy wouldnt have been a suprise if looked at from nowadays perspective. Fukushima is a nuclear reactor build on the edge of one of the most earthquake torn islands. I cannot imagine a case of a modern nuclear reactor going boom if its not right at the edge of a continental plate. You can run planes into them and the fission reaction is self controlled duo to the design of the reactor, if every worker in a nuclear facility suddenly died the reactors would happily keep on running until fission stops, cooling and moderation is self sustained and unless not explicitly told to do so otherwise by human intervention (or the water pool having a leak...) the fission will decrease not increase.

@@aeureus true, but if you observe Cherenkov radiation in the air or water around you, your weekend plans are pretty much over. I'm aware of only a handful of times people witnessed that phenomena that way, three during the Manhattan Project and in a criticality incident in a Japanese fuel processing plant. I did chuckle about checking the camera for activation, as they'd be a wee bit above 1 MW to get that kind of neutron flux at that distance in water. But, the tests are standard and mandatory. One thing I do remember about the NRC, they're utterly inflexible in safety procedures.

@@AdriStouse Vacuum's still have particles. Casimir effect, and no true vacuum exists anyway, though experimentally could be considered statistically void of matter.
