I’m beginning to feel really obsolete.

Not to worry. This easily be defeated by covering the reactors in tin foil.

Secret? Not anymore.

Oh, will the forever plastic particles saturating the oceans, interfere with their detectors?

Astrophysicists build radio-telescopes the size of multiple football fields trying to pick up (and then sort out) radiation frequencies, particularly low frequency, of particular sources of energy they are trying to find.

How Neutrinos would be gathered and analyzed for very specific sources like submarines is beyond me

It’s harder to detect sensitive neutrinos because they are shy.

o, I mean “secretive” ones. Never mind, I botched it.

Not very “secretive”, is it?

Neutering detection has been done in the past in deep salt mines with large containers full of carbon tetrachloride surrounded by sensitive scintillating (very sensitive) photo detectors. There have been semiconductor plastc-based photo detectors but I’ve never heard of any that can capture neutrons. Neutrinos just do react with much!

Anything they reveal is 15 years obsolete.

I get that feeling when working in high tech too.

This stuff is about 30 years ago as it is.

Ask yourself why the USAF wants to turn off Navstar.

Typo first word
Neutering = neutrino

I should have been nicer to the old guard when I was moving up.

Another typo:
Last sentence do = don’t

AIP submarines are virtually silent and would produce no nuclear signature.
