The woman is smart. She keeps telling the man that, “we should go”. That sure looked like multiple explosions, and they were friggin’ big.

Those pretend “big men” like Putin, Trump, Kim, etc can *&$# off and die. And the sooner, the better. All these beggars do is create widows and orphans. They are all cut from the same cloth. Damn, these moments of lucidity are horrible. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coastal.view Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 with all those plume clouds with each of the explosions i'm confident they have the radiation issue completely under control already and things are again back to normal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taxi Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 The Russian government is saying "Radiation levels are normal".....Phew... I was worried there for a moment. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUPERTKBD Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 Quote The Russian authorities on Tuesday announced the evacuation of the village nearest to the site of a nuclear accident in northern Russia, suggesting dangers more grave than initially reported. The still-mysterious episode last week killed seven people and released radiation, apparently when a small nuclear reactor malfunctioned during a test of a novel type of missile near a naval weapons testing site. Russian officials have released a flurry of misleading or incomplete statements playing down the severity of the accident, which the military first reported on Thursday as a fire involving a liquid-fueled rocket engine. It was not until Sunday that Russian scientists conceded that a reactor had released radiation during a test on an offshore platform in the White Sea. That pattern of murkiness continued on Tuesday, as news reports and official statements offered only the vaguest explanation for the evacuation, and hours later seemed to indicate that it had been called off. Still, the possibility of evacuating the area raised the question of whether authorities see a continuing threat from Thursday’s explosion or may be preparing to retrieve the radioactive source, potentially posing new dangers. On Saturday, Tass, a state news agency, cited an unnamed official at the Russian nuclear company Rosatom as saying that the explosion on the test platform had knocked the scientists who died into the sea, suggesting the reactor or what remained of it also wound up in the water. Aleksandr K. Nikitin, a researcher with the Norwegian environmental group Bellona and an authority on radiation safety in Russia, said in an interview that the military might have to fish the damaged reactor from the seabed. For now, he said, “there are mostly questions without clear answers.” More in the link: https://www.msn.com/en-ca/news/world/russia-orders-evacuation-of-village-near-site-of-nuclear-accident/ar-AAFKYwE?li=AAggNb9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that those people were standing there watching and filming is eerily reminiscent of the scene in Chernobyl (the TV series) when the people of Pripyat were standing on the bridge watching the "fireworks" from the nuclear facility, while ash rained down on them. At the end of the final episode, they noted that everyone on that bridge (which included many children, as parents considered the show a "family affair") had died within a decade, mostly of cancer. Hopefully, nothing so severe for these folks. Edited August 13, 2019 by RUPERTKBD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully, nothing so severe for these folks. I remember watching on the TV Soviet military helicopters dropping lead, clay and sand over the reactor in 1986. All those pilots knew that they were going to die due to radiation exposure. It started to rain back home as the radioactive clouds covered Europe, on the TV and radio you were told to stay indoors. Scary times for sure! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like post fukushima where the canadian and american governments said that it's ok, no radiation worries all good...but then raised the "on paper safe amount of radiation exposure" to almost twice the actual limits that had been set for decades. Good thing we have these people saying "no, radiation you ned to follow our rules" to these accidents or i'd be afraid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
