After japan's tragedy, there is lot of heated debate in my country abour nuclear energy.
What is your opinion about this one?
Yesterday i was researching some info about chernobyl, and it was very raw to read.
About 500.000 "liquidators" worked there even though many of them knew they were gonna die after nuclear exposure; sooner or later, but noone refused to help.
His work saved europe from a much bigger explosion.
The melted core was about to leak to an underground pool. The contact of the melted core at probably 1.200? degrees would have produced so much steam in contact with water that it would have blown and thus scattering the nuclear particles all over europe, in a much higher concentration, making europe lethal to any kind of life.
Some good reads, and a tribute video that gets to my heart after reading the brave work that liquidators did.
