That's an exciting new way for the news to be depressing, I saw this and presumed it was here in #Australia then I found out it's actually in the #USA
The error seems like a bad sign? But I'm not sure what's exactly its a sign of?
Part of why I jumped to the wrong conclusion is that I strongly suspect one of the goals of #AUKUS is that #Australia ends up the dumping ground for our "ally's" spent reactors, we get second hand submarines but I have not heard anything about USA plans to accept returns of the waste?

I cannot help but sigh deeply whenever politicians get involved in strategic military discussions. This is in no way to disparage, in this case, Senator #Shoebridge as he rightly points out that a handful of submarines will not guarantee open sea lanes to Australia in the event of war. For what it’s worth, Sen Shoebridge is only targeting the Govt’s goto spiel about #AUKUS, that is a simple message which the public can understand and focus on.
While the govt messaging about protecting sealanes being the reason for SSN acquisition is not entirely wrong, it is not entirely correct either. Submarines platforms are primarily intelligence, insertion, and deterence platforms, #Stealth is something SSN currently have in spades. Their stealth characteristics make these SNNs a force projection multiplier in any theater of sea warfare and likely to make an aggressor think twice before they commit to offensive actions. This comment is not a defence of #AUKUS since that is simply a defence acquisition project. But it is in defence of the need for undersea platforms that are stealthy, highly survivable, can transport personel, equipment and stores, carry offensive and defensive elements and traverse transoceanic distances at speed without refueling. Those needs are dictated to the ADF by the govt of the day in terms of assigned strategic missions and outcomes. In short, our ADF (men adn women pledging their lives to defend us all) deserves the very best materiel and platforms we can provide in order to carry out those missions and responsibilites entrusted to our them.
Everything else is plainly just politics, played by, I dare say, less than genuine and knowledgeable individuals.

As a follow-up to the #murder of #AlexPretti wouldn’t it be about time that we Australians broke off the AUKUS deal and wound back what ties we have to the #dysfunctional #crazy #racist #UnitedStates?
If we really need human crewed #NuclearSubmarines, and I suspect we don’t, it would be a good move to try and get back on side with the French who could build our subs for us.
Of course we would need to build a #nuclear #reactor to produce the fuel needed, or failing that we should arrange for the #French or even the #British to refuel our subs for us when the fuel rods need replacing.
Or maybe we should concentrate on #unmanned nuclear power #drone submarines capable of working at ridiculous depths and loitering on the bottom for years, ready to kill any threatening ship or submarine when needed.
The technology is available; perhaps we could lead the world in producing our own version of such a monstrous machine. Again, we could rely on our friendly allies to refuel them for us for a price.
#ScottMorrison was a lying idiot.

Does Europe need more nuclear-powered submarines?
A nuclear submarine is a sensitive technology that is currently used by only six countries: France, the United Kingdom, the United States, Russia, China, and India.
A defence expert weighs in on whether Europe needs more nuclear-powered submarines amid growing tensions with Russia.

South Korea's nuclear submarine gamble raises prospect of underwater arms race in Asia
South Korea's pursuit of nuclear-powered submarines is gaining traction following President Donald Trump's endorsement, ending decades of U.S. resistance in a move that could reshape Asia's security landscape and escalate an underwater arms race.

The effect of #ClimateChange on sources of #radionuclides to the #MarineEnvironment
Published: 16 March 2024
Justin P. Gwynn, Vanessa Hatje, Núria Casacuberta, Manmohan Sarin & Iolanda OsvathAbstract:
"Climate change interacts with the sources and cycling of contaminants, such as radionuclides, in the environment. In this review, we discuss the implications of climate change impacts on existing and potential future sources of radionuclides associated with human activities to the marine environment. The overall effect on operational releases of radionuclides from the nuclear and non-nuclear sectors will likely be increased interference or prevention of normal operations due to weather-related events. For certain #RadioactiveWaste dumped at sea and sunken #NuclearSubmarines, the impact of climate change and ocean #acidification on the release of radionuclides and their subsequent fate in the marine environment should be considered further. Fluxes from secondary sources of radionuclides in the marine and terrestrial environment and cryosphere will change in response to climate change impacts such as sea level rise, warming and changes in precipitation patterns. In addition, climate change impacts may increase the risk of releases of radionuclides from operational and legacy wastes on land to the marine environment. Overall, our synthesis highlights that there is a need to understand and assess climate change impacts on sources of radionuclides to the marine environment to meet environmental and management challenges under future climate scenarios."Full paper:

Dayton Daily News investigation found #contamination, sick workers at #PiketonOhio plant
By Lynn Hulsey
May 15, 2019"A polluted former #UraniumEnrichment plant in #Piketon closed years ago but it's impact continues to resonate through the community, including this week when a #MiddleSchool was closed after traces of radioactive #neptunium were found at an air monitoring station at the school.
"Contamination with radiation and multiple toxic substances at the former Portsmouth Gaseous Diffusion Plant led to an ongoing, multibillion dollar environmental cleanup and sickened plant workers who had to fight for compensation as they battled debilitating terminal illnesses related to their years at the plant.
"A massive 2006 investigation by the Dayton Daily News found five plumes of poisoned #groundwater, contamination with radiation, #beryllium, polychlorinated biphenyls (#PCBs) and #asbestos.
"The investigation found lax safety practices, routine mishandling of toxic and #radioactive material and at least 400 accidental releases of #UraniumGas or toxic fluorine. Toxins were dumped into unlined #landfills and ditches and leached into #groundwater and the Little #BeaverCreek, a tributary of the #SciotoRiver.
"The plant was operated by the federal government and contractors from 1954 to 2001 and enriched uranium to high levels for #NuclearWeapons and #NuclearSubmarines and to lower levels for #nuclearpowerplants.

Australia’s nuclear regulator has greenlit plans to build a nuclear waste storage facility in Rockingham, Western Australia. The waste facility will store weapons-grade material.
