[QUOTE="ChaseOK, post: 1484502, member: 2103"] From another site; "The reason the Chernobyl leak was so terrible had to do with the specific type of reactor, that being an RBMK, and its lack of shielding. The currently endangered reactors are LWRs, Light Water Reactors, like the one at Three Mile Island...a leak of Chernobyl proportions is not even remotely possible with an LWR. There is much more shielding in place which will prevent catastrophic leaks. [/QUOTE]
