>As of October 31, 2020, there were 56 commercially operating nuclear power plants with 94 nuclear power reactors in 28 U.S. states.

Hypothetically speaking, how absolutely fucked are we if a nuclear meltdown like Chernobyl happened in one of the 56 NPP in the US?

We're talking fully critical, the fucking core exposed to open sky. How fast exactly could you contain, realistically and how devastating would it be compared to Chernobyl?

Just wondering this after watching HBO's Chernobyl mini series and being absolutely fucking terrified after watching it, unable to get more than a few hours of sleep for the past few days thinking about this shit
