Can they not just fly a helicopter right over it and dump some stuff on it?

I couldn't completely wrap my mind around the second half of this report, so, hope it works out for us.

They should put a series of boilers on top if it and at least get some power generation out of it.

Maybe that chunk of Chinese rocket aimlessly headed on a collision course back to earth will land on it.

The New Safe Confinement project they built over it all is neat, I thought that was gonna kick the can down the road another 50-100 years. I guess not

I thought this scenario Is why we developed drones.

One idea is to develop a robot that can withstand the intense radiation for long enough to drill holes in the FCMs and insert boron cylinders, which would function like control rods and sop up neutrons.
Scientists and engineers built a rover that can take core samples on the face of Mars, but we do not possess the skills as humans to do so here on Earth?

Blah, blah, blah exclusion zone and whatnot.

Maybe that rogue Chinese rocket will land on top of Chernobyl in 2-3 days.

Blame communism.

I assume this is Trump's fault?

Elon Musk could figure this shite out in a week and only require $1B in government grants to do it.

Early on, an FCM formation called the Elephant’s Foot was so hard scientists had to use a Kalashnikov rifle to shear off a chunk for analysis.
For some reason I found this statement very humorous. I guess it's better than saying "A comrade unloaded a 30 round magazine out of his Ak47 and knocked pieces of radioactive shite everywhere"

So the containment shield isn’t providing any protection?

Wonder how they get volunteers for this

Damn science, you scary

It was never inactive. The issue has never been totally resolved. Just contained.

The vibe I get from this is, "Can we have a robot? We want a robot? We'll take good care of him! Pleeeeeeeease!"
Just shovel some sand on it or something. Geez. It's been sitting there since 1986, FFS.

All I know is that animal life has flourished in the area since the people left and dispite the radiation...
