After the apocalypse ?? - bigpaul - 24 April 2013
maybe this is how everything will look after the fires and the looting and the dying, ash and debris everywhere. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2314041/Chernobyl-nuclear-disaster-Eeerie-photographs-Helene-Veilleux.html

Its kinda cool seeing nature reclaim what was abandoned. A few years ago there was a documentry about if humans fanished and how nature came back with skyscrappers were small eco systems and cats evolved. really interesting.

Very daunting pictures and the scientists sayning that the area will not be safe to live in for another 20,000 years.

To be honest BP there won't be anyone around to see this happen in UK, all the Nuclear power stations will melt down in a serious crash and flood britain with levels of radiation that will kill most of the life here, leaving it an irradiated wasteland for the next twenty thousand years. any total collapse of the infrastructure is a death sentence for us here as we can't escape the contamination. Chernobyl was bad enough with one reactor going critical, imagine what it would be like with all the uk reactors going critical, we are talking an extinction event for the british Isles that will take eons to heal.

It's interesting that not many of the buildings have actually crashed and crumbled. They mostly seem rigid and strong (not those that were hit by the explosion directly though).

Once the back up stops the water will stop being cooled surrounding the fuel rods, and it will boil off exposing the fuel rods to the air, the fuel rods will burn at thousands of degrees spewing out lethal doses of radiation into surrounding area and atmosphere. This will happen at all nuclear power plants if the power stops the cooling pumps.(25 April 2013, 10:01)Tartar Horde Wrote: To be honest BP there won't be anyone around to see this happen in UK, all the Nuclear power stations will melt down in a serious crash and flood britain with levels of radiation that will kill most of the life here, leaving it an irradiated wasteland for the next twenty thousand years. any total collapse of the infrastructure is a death sentence for us here as we can't escape the contamination.

You just have to look at the distribution of them, and use the Chernobyl model to plot the area of effect one nuclear plant can have, and do that for a map of the UK for every nuclear plant. The results will frighten the FCK out of you mate.
