The mystery of nuclear reactors

The first nuclear power plant in the world was produced in the United Kingdom, however, in fact, the power generation system using nuclear reactions was built by the Russians in 1954. However, even these two reactors are also not the most 'ancient ' nuclear reactors on Earth.

In June 1972, when uranium ore from Oklo was transferred to the French factory. After conducting the tests, French scientists discovered that the amount of uranium 235 (a nuclear reactor fuel) in the ore from Oklo was very low, even less than zero, 3%. Meanwhile, the amount of uranium 235 in ordinary uranium ore reached 0.711%. This bizarre phenomenon made French scientists particularly interested and they used a variety of ways to find out why the uranium 235 content in Oklo ore has returned so low.

Prehistoric nuclear reactors were found at Oklo.

After a long period of research and discussion, scientists were surprised to discover that it turned out that the cause of the uranium 235 content in Oklo ore was low because it was burned, meaning that it was over. use. This was the discovery that shocked the scientific world at that time. Many people have traveled to Oklo to find the true truth.

After a long time of trying to understand, scientists claim that Oklo has a nuclear reactor since ancient times.

This nuclear reactor consists of 16 areas with about 500 tons of uranium ore formed. According to research by scientists, the Oklo uranium mine was formed about 2 billion years ago. This ancient nuclear reactor began to "operate" about 500 thousand years ago.

With an intact preserved reactor, scientifically designed, reasonably constructed with a life of 2 billion years, scientists are extremely anxious. Because this reactor is designed and built by anyone? This question is still a challenging puzzle for scientists.

Most scientists think that this is a natural nuclear reactor?

However, many people think that it cannot be a natural product. Because, according to them, nature cannot meet the extremely strict technical conditions of chain reactions in nuclear power production.

By 2006, scientists once again asserted that, 2 billion years ago, there was a large reactor operating, emitting energy safely, stable to hundreds of thousands of years later but still There was no destructive explosion. According to them, the current level of human technology is not yet able to do that.

Location of Oklo on the map.

According to modern knowledge, only 2 billion years ago on the earth, there were only algae, humans have not yet appeared. Until the first period of the fourth century, Dai Tan Sinh (more than 3 million years ago) appeared the first ape. Therefore, it can be affirmed that the nuclear reactor in Oklo is absolutely not a human product. If this way of thinking, is this evidence of aliens? Or a masterpiece of a prehistoric civilization that people never knew.

Many scientists make the "romantic" hypothesis that, 2 billion years ago, aliens used a spacecraft to use atomic engines to Earth. These aliens have built a nuclear reactor at Oklo to have the energy supplied to their activity on Earth. They then left Earth and left an ancient nuclear reactor at Oklo.

There are also people who say that it is not an alien product but a masterpiece of ancient civilizations that people never knew. According to them, at 2 billion years ago, human society developed to a very high level. However, due to constant competition and hostility, a nuclear war broke out. Humans are destroyed but still leave very small traces and the nuclear reactor in Oklo is one of those traces. Besides this bold assumption, science also has other explanations.
