If you knew the real story behind Elon Musk, it's eerily similar to some other oligarchs of Silicon Valley. Musk is not the genius some make him out to be. Regarding nuclear energy, he doesn't know what he is suggesting.
Did you know, there is no way of really shutting down a nuclear power plant when it is suppose to be decommissioned?
Did you know, recommissioning a nuclear power plant is incredibly difficult and risky?
The expense is extraordinary. This is why the Department of Energy is always extending the life of old nuclear plants. It's basically kicking the can down the street. Because the NRC is extending the life of these reactors, every single one of those nuclear reactors is a ticking time bomb and another Fukishima or Chernobyl waiting to happen.
The NRC reports that there is over 71,000 tons of spent nuclear fuel in more than 30 states. Illinois has 9,301 tons of spent nuclear fuel at its power plants, the most of any state in the country, according to industry figures. It is followed by Pennsylvania with 6,446 tons; 4,290 in South Carolina and roughly 3,780 tons each for New York and North Carolina.
Most all of this is stored on-site at nuclear power plants across the nation either in cooling pools or dry casket storage. None of these storage methods is a solution to long-term storage. Cooling pools require a constant supply of fresh water. The Fukushima disaster occurred because the "fail-safe" backup power for the pumps lost power resulting in the several cooling pools to evaporate exposing the spent fuel rods to air. This caused a nuclear fission chain reaction leading to a China Syndrome of at least three reactors.
Nuclear power is heavily subsidized by the government and without it could NEVER be profitable. There is far more to nuclear power than its expensive energy. The integral byproduct of this energy is radiation that causes "aging" to the containment vessels themselves. This means the containment vessels become fatigued and brittle well before the normal life expectancy. This is why the Hanford site and the Diablo Nuclear power plant alarmingly found cracks and leaks in the units. Science has no solution to this. Yet, the NRC keeps extending the life of existing nuke plants well beyond their life expectancy.
Tick, tick, tick.........
He was a Clown for all but the last couple years. His name 'Elon' stands for Prince of Mars in a book written by Clowns. Starting with X.com, he was involved in Funding for Clown Ops. It is hilarious to suggest that a CEO of so many disparate industries could spend so much time "shitposting" on Twitter. It is because we live in a Clown World where sending Comms is what rules the world.
oof
yikes
I'll stop you right there. You are putting far too much stock in what Clown World has led you to believe. Start allowing the idea that we were lied to far more and on far more subjects than ever thought possible.
DecodingSymbols
You have no clue what you are even talking about. Without even looking it was easy to predict. Decoding symbols was going to be the reference used as the source of info backing those comments like oof, and yikes.
I wonder what is stored in Yucca Mountain now instead of the nuclear waste that was supposed to be stored there? I worked on that DOE project decades ago and am kicking myself for never taking the tour when I had the chance.
Yucca Mountain was closed down many years ago because it ran out of capacity to store spent nuclear fuel. In other words, it's one giant sealed sarcophagus.
Thanks. When we left Vegas I tracked it for a while and they were saying they couldn’t store the fuel safely (which seemed ridiculous to me.) Last I knew they never used it, but I obviously missed the news at some point as I was busy raising kids 😊
Germany shut down its nuclear power stations and will not be able to get them up and running if needed. France just shut down 3. Both schizo.
Have you watched Pandora's Promise? If not, I recommend it.
I'll have to watch it. It sounds familiar....
Downvoted and you are one of the few in this thread that know what you are talking about. Interesting how real world actual reality is less popular then psy op, psy op mantra over and over. I have intimate knowledge of what you are referencing in your comment and can confirm near everything stated is very accurate.
Thanks for the compliment. If it wasn't for the many others posting incredible information and perhaps blessed with a God-given common sense, I'd be miserably 'woke'. We all would be.
I'll tell you this though, every time I post inconvenient truths about nuclear energy I am 'down-voted' and attacked. Over the years I've learned this isn't a coincident either. From at least 2003 I have posted similar information on nuclear energy and included updates over the years. Each and every time, I am attacked and/or heavily down-voted. There appears to be a powerful lobby. Try this yourself and see the results. I know I'm over the target because of the consistency of attacks. Right now, I have +5 up-votes and -5 down-votes. Coincidence? The history I have experienced tells me there's more to this than people know.
I have work in and around the industry for many years. Nuclear, radiography, hazmat and radioactive materials etc. I started trying to confront some of these outrageous comments on here only to find its a futile attempt of a long winded reply of actual facts its not worth my time after seeing, Oh yeah read decoding symbols is referenced as some proof and valid source. Sad. And you are right seems to be a effort to slide against actual info on these things, ive noticed this as well for along time.
