Prehistoric nuclear reactors
In Okno, Gabon republic is home to the famous Uran mine. In June 1972, a French Uran ore processing factory was amazed to find that the newly imported uranium ore was already in use.
Ancient atomic reactor 1.8 billion years ago at Oklo, Galon.
Uranium content is 60% lower than normal. So scientists have come to the survey site.
The results have shocked the globe: Okno is the site of an ancient nuclear reactor . The kiln consists of 6 areas of about 500 tons of uranium ore, the output capacity is very low, only 10-100Kw. According to a survey, Uran Okno mine was formed about 2 billion years ago after a mine-after-reactor went into operation shortly, up to 500,000 years. This reactor has a complete, reasonable structure so that scientists must be amazed. It has the ability to safely generate energy, stable up to hundreds of thousands of years later, without any destructive explosion. According to them, the current level of human technology is not yet able to do that.
They also found many traces of fission products and waste fuels at different locations in the region.
Inside the Oklo nuclear reactor, Galon
According to research results, Oklo nuclear kilns are several kilometers long, the temperature effect on the environment is limited to 40 meters on all sides. Radioactive waste is still blocked by surrounding geological elements and does not spread outside the explosive area.
With the ability to modulate the reaction, that is, when the reaction begins, it can control the output itself. Therefore, it is possible to prevent big explosion disaster.
Who left this nuclear reactor?
With a nuclear reactor today requires very strict conditions, in nature can not be self.
Dr Glenn T. Seaborg, a former member of the US Atomic Energy Commission, who won the Nobel Prize for synthesizing heavy elements, pointed out that the uranium must be burnt in the reaction of the grain . exactly. For example, the country involved in nuclear reactions must be pure. Even a few millionths of impurities will be harmful to the reaction. The problem here is that pure water does not exist in nature anywhere in the world.
2 billion years ago, life on Earth just sprouted, how could humans build a reactor? Could it be that extraterrestrial people go to this deserted place to build a kiln, when they leave to leave on Earth. But that is just an unfounded speculation.
