[MD] mox fuel

[ADRIE KINTZIGER]

Only as an aside of course,..
The reactor's on the Japanese plant are mostly Tchernobyl types like plant 1
is.
What they try to keep out of the news on CNN, is on request of the Japanese
and
American govt.

The reactors are fueled with mox tablets in the fuelrod's.
What that means is this, they spice up the uranium 239 with u 235 and u 240,
and sometimes
Plutonium of military(weapon's grade) quality.Or! a combination of it all.

If this goes into a meltdownscenario, poof, weapons grade Plutonium or u240
and u235(weapons grade)
into the ww atmosphere.Probably the main reason to get the Reagan over
there,the specialists for military graded
Plutonium are on board,the finest experts are living inside the casco of the
Reagan,i think the Reagan itself
has about six reactors on board, and some nuke's.
