It sits in the container designed to contain it. Which, presumably, is exactly what’s happening. At least, there’s no evidence to suggest it isn’t. And absent that, I have to seriously question what it is we’re panicking about.


Sorry but its sits inside the container (which was buld to contain it as long as you have an EFFECTIVE water cooling).
Nobody ever said that the “container” can still contain it without that.
The only thing the container does now is buying you some time to get the cooling back.
If you fail it will melt. This is a fact.
Guess why the are so desperate to cool it?
Do you think they do this just for fun?

“Nobody ever said that the ‘container’ can still contain it without that.”

Yes they did. That’s its point. Not to merely “buy time,” which would be pathetic enough to confirm the worst hyperbole of the anti-nuke crowd.

“Guess why the are so desperate to cool it?

Don’t be cute. I don’t need to explain why you’d want to forestall a complete meltdown even if you were confident the material would be contained.
