Anyone unaware of Gary's reference to Threads, a little insight for you. Threads is the British counterpart to The Day After, released the year after The Day After. Both films depict the initial outbreak of nuclear war and the immediate aftermath. Threads was set in Sheffield (hence Gary mentioning it) and is infinitely more horrifying, with a more brutal look at the effects of nuclear war.

[@aligallaton3978]

And only half of the extra horror comes from its being set in Sheffield.

Urinating into a reactor? Security would shoot you before you made it anywhere near the coolant system. They don't screw around. Otherwise, it depends on the type: A BWR (RBMK-1000, et al) wouldn't suffer much damage (Hot, acidic, salty urine might weaken something over time. Good thing most BWRs can filter and replace their coolant.) CANDU and other heavy-water moderated reactors, you might throw off the void coefficient calculations a bit (Likely not enough to cause concern) and cause a bit of damage over time. PWRs add pressure to the coolant loop. You might cause a pump failure at some point, leading to a loss of coolant accident. PWRs have backup pumps and SCRAM systems. They can also change and filter their coolant. LFRs, MSRs, (etc.) It depends on what the coolant is. Lead cooled reactors would boil the urine and irradiate it. MSRs could react in odd ways, causing a loss of coolant accident, GFRs are pressurized with a working gas instead of a liquid... (You'd boil and irradiate the urine.) Basically, don't. You'll cause people to die.

[@Fetidaf]

Andrew Foss of peeing on a plutonium rod 😂

[@bobthecannibal1]

nhuKer New or used? Either way, LMFBR Fuel rods wouldn't be straight plutonium. Generally, ~60 kilos of Plutonium per tonne of depleted Uranium are used in fast neutron breeding reactors to decrease the amount of transuranic (waste) elements produced from reactor operation. The question has bearing on the radioactivity of the rod. Anyway, for a 'new' fuel rod, if you weren't shot by security before you unbuttoned your fly, (Breeder reactors tend to output more fissiles or enrich other fissiles: Y'know, creating "weapons grade" materials. Something any sane person doesn't want falling into the wrong hands, therefore, inside of a location that is very strictly guarded.) urinating on a fuel rod (7mm UO2/DU blended pellets in an 8.65mmx2.7m long stainless steel clad tube) would cause damage to the tube cladding. You'd create "very low level" radioactive waste. And you'd *definitely* be shot before you could re-button your fly. If you survived, you'd go to prison for a long time, be charged a lot of money to reconstruct the fuel rod, and make a number of preople (From security all the way down to the janitor) very cranky. A 'used' fuel rod is *worse*: You'd probably be irradiated and die from the short-lived transuranic isotope products' neutron output (An LMFBR reduces, not eliminates, transuranics) Those rods are hotter than Kiera Knightley making a lesbian porn film covered in honey. The cladding would be damaged, and your urine and corpse both (along with however many of security's bullets remained in your body) would become 'intermediate level' radioactive waste. You'd make, again, a lot of people (A few more this time, since the fuel rod would likely be just about to leave for reprocessing, (since I'm not sure about the materials compatibility and staffing for *each* of the world's reprocessing cells, I'm leaving an estimate out.) and thus under heightened security, very cranky.

I thought that Rod Hull would pop out if a real life emu pissed into the reactor.

[@NuclearSavety]

Peeing in the reactor does ..... absolutely nothing. There is about 100t water in the primary circuit, thus the concentration of the non-water content of the piss is highly dilluted. Further, due to neutron capturing of oxygen one prodices lots of N16 in normal operation , thus there is already much nitrogen in the coolant loop. A little more nitrogen from the piss doesnt make a difference. And theee is not much left in the piss that is neither water nor nitrogen. But if you ate asparagus before.....

Emus are very hard to keep, they need a lot of mental stimulation (weekend trips to visit nuclear power plants have proved to be the best) and the safest way to transport them is for a strong keeper to carry the emu, with one hand up its arse for stability. Too many glorious emus have been sadly puppetefied by an enrichment trip to the local nuclear power plant. A tragic story of animal rearing, or maybe I’m just talking out of my own arse.

BTheHeretic Safely habitable and people living there are two different things. Also animals have simpler genomes than us and therefore are less likely to be affected by radiation induced mutation.

[@TheWolfboy180]

+Seraphim Eter Not necessarily. A lot of animals have more complex genomes. They receive the same amount of radiation and undergo the same amount of mutation as any human living there; it's just that they don't have the capacity to know or care about it. There's nothing to deter them, and it's one of the few places that (most) humans won't touch. Of course they're thriving.

[@foxman105]

Wildlife is thriving, because there is nobody to disturb it. Many of the captured specimens from the area had physiological mutations and tumours throughout their entire body. They were basically slowly dying of cancer, but since they were animals they didn't care.

[@24680kong]

The only reason they evacuated people was because the levels of radiation people could absorb were above what is considered "acceptable". All that means is statistically, a few more people will die if they live there than if they leave. (This is actually in question now: the people living in the zone currently have longer life-expectancy than those who left just because the stress of leaving their homes encouraged more smoking and alcoholism). Most of the people and animals don't/won't have a problem (at least after the initial cleanup was finished). In fact, human encroachment did more to harm the animal populations than the disaster did. The animals will have slightly elevated chances of getting cancers/tumors, but they've already survived a couple generations just fine there. They've been able to survive and reproduce just fine.
