Don't show me this message again✕ Scientists monitoring the abandoned Chernobyl nuclear power plant in Ukraine have discovered fission reactions erupting within an inaccessible chamber in the ruins of the complex, raising concerns that a further explosion at the site could take place. Anatolii Doroshenko of the Institute for Safety Problems of Nuclear Power Plants (ISPNPP) in Kiev reported a 40 per cent rise in neutron emissions from the chamber since 2016 during discussions last week about the possibility of dismantling the old reactor, according to He and his colleagues are now studying ...

Nuclear Fission Reactions Are Happening at Chernobyl Again Scientists are scrambling to neutralize the threat. Popular Mechanics, BY CAROLINE DELBERT, MAY 10, 2021 A melted amalgam of nuclear fuel at Chernobyl is beginning to react. The issue is rainwater, which has activated materials buried deep within the closed plant. The reaction could burn out naturally, but it could also require human intervention. On April 26, 1986, Reactor No. 4 exploded at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in Ukraine, causing the worst nuclear accident in history. Now, thirty-five years later, smoldering nucl...

The issue is rainwater, which has activated materials buried deep within the closed plant. The reaction could burn out naturally, but it could also require human intervention. On April 26, 1986, Reactor No. 4 exploded at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in Ukraine, causing the worst nuclear accident in history. Now, thirty-five years later, smoldering nuclear “embers” are still buried within Chernobyl site, raising questions about just what might happen there—and what’s at stake. ➡ Ukrainian scientists recently realized that leftover nuclear fission fuel made of uranium has begun ...

If you were planning to make your first trip after the pandemic shutdown ends to Chernobyl and visit the site of the infamous nuclear power plant disaster of 1986 – you may want to call your travel agent and book a cruise instead because, despite COVID-19, that might be safer. Sensors have picked up fission reactions causing a “smoldering” in uranium fuel masses buried deep inside a reactor hall that could cause the closed plant to rise up again like a radioactive phoenix. While that may sound cool, you’d never make it back home alive to show-off your glow-in-the-dark souvenir T-shirt...
