Chernobyl: new video tour of reactor 2 - not touristy
Well worth watching for those interested. Tour of Chernobyl reactor 2, which was shutdown at the time reactor 4 blew up in April 1986, but restarted in the following December as the electricity was needed. It was shut down for good about 2000. The video is taken by a chap, quote, "[with] a graduate education in nuclear engineering with a research emphasis in radiobiology" who arranges workshops for professionals with an interest in radiation protection. "The target audience of our RAD-ER workshops has been people who may encounter radiation, radioactive contamination, or nuclear emergency response incidental to their jobs, and who are interested in a hands-on, basic understanding of radiation measurement and practical protection practices in a small-group (~8 people) setting. Participants have diverse backgrounds (first responders, academics, students in relevant fields, engineers). I try to distinguish these groups from the ChNPP administration's stereotype of "tourists", which does not mean we don't have fun (we do), but that we have a relevant focus for the visit, background prep, and good discipline" The vid was taken in Nov 2016. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oe_zzTQFV3o -- (\_/) (='.'=) systemd: the Linux version of Windows 10 (")_(") |
