Russia's 'floating Chernobyl' nuclear plant begins voyage.

Greenpeace has called the project"Chernobyl on ice" and"floating Chernobyl."

It is equipped with two pressurized water reactors — a version of naval reactors used by Russia's atomic icebreakers, Dmitry Alekseyenko, the deputy head of floating nuclear power plant construction and operation, told NBC News. Unlike a ship, the Lomonosov cannot move anywhere on its own, lacking a propulsion system, and instead requires tugboats to guide it.

Comrade you worry too much about the barrels going over the side of the ship...there's nothing but mud and hagfish down there...

And where will it go ?

jandroid What could possibly go wrong...?

This is one of the worst ideas in creation.

What could possibly go wrong?

Russia seems to have a terrible record when it comes to nuclear anything. This floating time bomb should scare the shit out of every human being on this planet knowing how incompetent the Russians are in handling radioactivity and it’s harm to life of all kinds.

This is maybe not the best idea Russia ever had.

Everybody knows that the best container on earth to prevent dangerous chemicals, etc from leaking when transporting them or storing them is the good old 55 gallon steel drum. People still use them in the US. Hmm, I had better check the one buried in my back yard with oil in it.

Не «Плавучий Чернобыль», а Плавучая атомная электростанция «Академик Ломоносов». Насчет загрязнения окружающей среды, беспокоиться надо в Японии, где АЭС Фукусима-1 уже загрязняет мировой океан.
