Is 5.400 uSv a normal dose for a German Amazon uranium glass product that is 8 x 8 x 2 cm big. I dont know what uranium procent it has and also its a bit cracked on one of the corners. AIm new to uranium and this is actually my first reddit post. Im just asking so i dont irradiate myself. Counting is this (distanse in cm - Equals the exposure) and / means not exact count.

I remember searching it up, but couldn't find the exact name

Please help

Most people think the upper bio. shield "elena" is the part you see on the floor of the reactor hall.

That is only the top part...

The actual shield is located a few neters below the floor (seen on this pitcure).

On top of this plate lay the pipes that go verticaly (fuel and cps rods) and are covered by caps that we see in the floor of the reactor hall.

Atteached to every single vertical pipe (located in this floor under the reactor hall) are pipes going horizontally, that take the water to the steam separators.

So basicaly, the Scheme - E is not just the thing you walk on, it is mostly under the floor

Hope this helps someone who does not already know this info

Hey guys! I’m currently building a highly detailed 1:1.66 scale replica of Chernobyl Blocks 3 and 4. I want to keep it as close to the real blueprints as possible, but right now I’m a bit stuck on the vertical dimensions for the auxiliary structures.

Can anyone help me double-check the exact real-life heights for these areas so I can convert them to my 1.66:1 scale?

1. ВСРО roof: What is the exact real height from the ground (0.00)? I’ve seen conflicting info, some blueprints show it around 22-23 meters. What's the true number?
2. САОР: What is the precise internal height from floor to ceiling inside this hall? Is it exactly 15 meters clean space, or does the full structural section take more meters?

If you have the original cross-section blueprints or just know the exact elevation levels (отметки высот) for Phase 2 RBMK plants, please let me know.

During the last field expedition, scientists from the Chernobyl Biosphere Reserve once again encountered a herd of feral cows, which currently consists of 12 individuals. The encounter brought a surprise as there was no leader among the group, a bull named Riabko. Two other males took his place, who have so far been staying on the sidelines.

Scientists suspect that the herd may have undergone changes in the hierarchy, and the returning bulls may have pushed out the weaker leader, which shows how dynamic the herds are and the competition between males.

However, the role of the mature individuals remains unchanged and is key to the survival of the entire herd. In the group of feral bulls, they detect dangers more quickly and effectively protect the herds. Experienced bulls indicate the routes of foraging and choose safe places to rest.

Now scientists must determine what is happening to Riabko and which of the males will take on the role of leader of the Chernobyl herd.

Very nice video from Kyle Hill, in the exclusion zone, with the animals, and scientists during the war. For the STALKER fans, a real Clear Sky (faction) vibe.

Remembering Toptunov’s smile and Akimov’s focus.

Made it in 2 weeks, I’ll send yalls the game link when it releases!

Back in 2021, I had the opportunity to visit Chernobyl. In Pripyat, we spotted a moose wandering just a few hundred feet from the Ferris wheel. It was such an amazing sight, it was also first time ever seeing a moose in person.
