A little background information
Super Gau / Worst Case Nuclear Accident
In the late 70s -Pro Nuclear Power scientists, companies and government officials claimed that the chance of a Super Gau/ Worst Case Nuclear Accident happening, would be estimated anywhere from 1: 10 Million up to a 1 : 100 Million chance per year and plant to happen.
Beginning of 1980s, six years before the Chernobyl Super Gau estimates had arrived at a possible Super Gau ratio of 1: 10.000, which was a 1000 times more and a tiny little bit more realistic .
And finally, after Chernobyl in 1986 and Fukushima 25 years later in 2011- we arrived in REALITY.
