Absolutely NOT, Chernobyl was a grphite cored reactor, they were testing it and inadvertantly drained
all of the coolant fromt he reactor then restarted it, the reactor melted down and burned through the floor.
In Japan, the reactor shut off automatically, there can be no reactor melt down.
this is the sort of thing the Enviroweenies luv to pounce on, rather then congratulating the Japanese
engineers for sucha great design, they will scream about a spill...”
That’s not even close to what happened at Chernobyl.
Really? Do tell “what actually happened” then, they were testing the reactor and there was no coolant in it when they did the tests.
You have different information then please do share it.
