...The 9.0 last March will be nothing.... ...compared to the devastation of that MASSIVE spent fuel pool going critical. :hide: No one ever answered this question.... Would a nuke explosion set off at the Fukushima plant consume a great deal of the radioactive fuel and convert it into lesser isotopes? ...or would it just scatter the radioactivity???Still looking for legit answers from those who know the process. Also.....wouldn't turning Fukushima into a seawater filled crater be a better solution than leaving it as is??  Quoting: Burt Gummer yeah mate, i postulated and researched that one back in may last year...... bit late now tho i suppose.. they did seriously consider it....

"4. It will vapourize the problem including the Plutonium."THAT is what I wanted to know. Thank you.  So a tactical nuke WOULD eliminate much of the problem.  That is truly fighting fire with fire. :atomicbm: BS. A tactical nuke wouldn't work. What you read was a blog of someones opinion that is very wrong. Nuking Fukushima is the worst idea ever. It was considered as an option by the military as soon as the gravity of the situation became apparent. Since it was not done, one can assume that it was determined to be a bad idea. Don't forget that this is an unprecedented situation and the answers are not evident to anyone, even those with scientific expertise. It may have worked if done immediately. It may have merely made the contamination worse. Better to err on the side of caution; which is ironic considering nuke power is inherently dangerous to start with. I sincerely hope we never find out what happens when you nuke thousands of tons of nuclear reactor fuel.. ~ wb
