and uh

steam plants SUCK

a lot of reators

dnt actually have outlets

for steam

in the primary ystem

the steam gets sent down a duct

to be cooled

but stays inside the system

at all times

That's all correct but putting a 2k deep hole through any structure could still be hazardous and we don't even know said structure

you are refering to a dual-loop cooling cycle

ummmm....no

We make holes that deep all the time. That's not the problem.

In Oklahoma, it's the wastewater disposal wells that have caused all the Earthquakes.

drilling a hole through a major geological structure does jack shit

you have a reactor loop with dirty contaminated water and then another loop that passes through the tubine

Yeah I was thinking maybe not because the steam could get contaminated but you'd still want an emergency release valve even if its into a sealed chamber

scale scale scale

the steam is always contaminated

its been directly touching the rods

the scales drilling can work at are orders of magnitude below what the earth itself does

And this is what happens when u don't survey corrrectly

Yeah I thought about that but I'm not an expert on nuclear engineering so I went with doubt

Why am I suddenly getting images of Homer at the nuclear plant? XD

Here's a solution: We'll build the nuclear power plants in Mexico, and run power lines North into the United States.

Problem. Solved.

@Laucivol There should be!

that was drilled into an existing salt mine, a very different situation

achernobyl impacted most of eastern europe pretty heavily

an accident in mexico would still fuckover the us

plus youd have incompetent mexicns running shit

also massive body of water, so not all man made

nah, we build a container that can survive catastrophic failure droped from orbit. test the HELL out of it, then launch the waste

i can test a container

They blow up nuclear bombs underground just build the whole facility underground

can't test something to last 10k yrs

have fun with that kiddo

They don't because its already not profitable

Build your nuclear power plants inside of actual mountains.

Problem solved.

rockets are insanely expensive

they don't do it cause of the people they killed
