@faab64@petergleick Yes, the problem is that younger generations cannot "feel" or understand what that means because they did not experience disasters like #Chernobyl or #Fukushima . My father is a reservist now (German #Bundeswehr ) and he was with the air force (Luftwaffe) and he brought at that time a #Geiger counter home and it was "cracking", means counting radiation. I'm glad my daughter is healthy, it didn't damage my DNA.

The terrible night of April 25-26, 1986: the world remembers the terrible tragedy of Chernobyl and honors the memory of the victims of the world's largest man-made disaster
Today is the anniversary of the worst nuclear disaster in peacetime. This day has become a symbol of extraordinary human strength, the inexhaustible courage of those who risked their lives to protect others. #AureFreePress#News#press#headline#Ukraine#Russia#Chernobyl
EBRD signs new grant agreement for next stage of Chernobyl work

Chernobyl's mutant wolves appear to have developed a resistance to cancer!
The wolves are exposed to cancer-causing radiation as they roam the wastelands of the abandoned city - with researchers finding part of their genetic information seems resilient to increased risk of the disease. #AureFreePress#News#press#headline#Ukraine#Chernobyl#cancer#wolves

"Held a meeting on all aspects: transport, energy, jobs and, of course, security issues. We must do everything to ensure the normality of life for all our people. Thanks to everyone who works for this!"
Grateful for the complex and detailed review of my book Nuclear bodies: the global hibakusha by Sonali Huria in the Journal for Peace and Nuclear Disarmament.

Dyatlov: What does the dosimeter say?
Akimov: 3.6 roentgen. But that's as high as the meter...
Dyatlov (ignores Akimov at that point): 3.6 - not great, not terrible.
Ein erstes Zwischenfazit nach 5 Episoden #3BodyProblem, die angeblich bisher teuerste Produktion von #Netflix und Verfilmung meiner Lieblings-SF Bücher:
Ich glaube Benioff/Weiss/Woo haben einige sehr kluge Entscheidungen getroffen. Die Zeitlinie im China der Kulturrevolution setzen sie fast buchstabengenau um, das war für mich immer der spirituelle Kern der Bücher. Dass der Cast danach westlicher ist als in den Büchern sein wird war bekannt, aber er ist immer noch angenehm divers.
1/4
Fazit nach Ende S01 von #3BodyProblem : Tolle Adaption des nicht einfachen Stoffes. So zum Vergleich - wir sind hier nicht auf dem Niveau von #Chernobyl (wer schafft das aber schon) durchaus aber von #TheLastOfUs.
Und in der Handlung geht es ja dann erst richtig los, das war bisher alles nur Setup.
Liefern müssen sie dann bei Space-Szenen: da kann nur #TheExpanse der Maßstab sein.
Wenn sie nur die Game-Sequenzen besser hinbekommen hätten - vielleicht hätte eine dringlichere Tonspur geholfen.
