BBC: 90 people came into contact with radiation infected after the explosion at a military training ground in Severodvinsk

This sounds like some super weapon testing gone wrong.

This could be a anti-matter disaster.

Something is happening

English version of the BBC article:

No worries just avoid the area for the next 20000 years.

All is well comrades.

Is this story some sort of porn lingo? It certainly has the porn undertones with the words like BBC and explosion. Wish people would be more mature about this stuff.

Depending on dose god help them. Anybody watch Chernobyl on hbo. Acute radiation poisoning is fucking horrific. Wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy.

Someday one of these nuclear accidents will produce people will special powers.

Lol that's like saying someday someone who jumps into a fire will develop super powers. Same result.

Cancer is how we evolve

It sounds like they were testing a new reactor with higher power-to-weight output. It may have been planned for their nuke powered very large torpedo or it could even have been planned for a nuke powered cruise missile.

In 1971 we tested a nuclear-thermal rocket engine to be used for a Mars mission. It was about the size of a 55 gal. drum and developed 5 gigawatts of power. IIRC, it was a pebble bed reactor where the nuke fuel was encased in ceramic pellets. The idea was to heat hydrogen propellant as it was pumped over the pellets.

This would produce a rocket engine about twice as efficient as the Space Shuttle Main Engines.

The nuke-thermal reactor blew up in the test tunnel. A scientist from Los Alamos was standing by it when it blew. His colleagues hit him with fire hoses to wash off the radioactive debris.

I had dinner with this group in 1984. We had Japanese that night. They all laughed about the incident despite the serious failure of the engine. He was sitting there at the dinner, a man in his sixties, looking quite healthy.

BTW, at the time we had dinner, my company was teaming with Los Alamos to produce a prototype neutral particle beam anti-missile weapon to be tested on the Space Shuttle.

The program never went beyond briefing charts and ground testing of components. It turned out that if we had fired it up, the X-rays produced by the particle accelerator would have killed all the astronauts on board.

However, blasting nuke warheads in space with neutral particles will very effectively render them useless.

Just an anecdote for the historians.

Similar to Alfa (LIRA) sub with compact reactor but more compact

Probably not practical or possible for cruuz meesile

Could be some kind of accident relating to scramjet but spread to rad material nearby?

Hate it when my radiation becomes infected.

Where on your dick?
