Wildfire rages near US nuclear lab


english.aljazeera.net

A wildfire is raging for a third day in the hills of northern New Mexico near the nuclear laboratory where the atomic bomb was first developed.

The blaze came within a few kilometers of a dump site where around 20,000 barrels of plutonium-contaminated waste is stored at the Los Alamos National Laboratory.

However, officials said that the fire is being kept at a safe distance and there is no danger of it reaching the low-level radioactive materials.

Both the town of Los Alamos, home to about 10,000 residents, and the laboratory, with a work force of about 12,000 people, were evacuated on Monday, and the lab will remain closed at least through Wednesday, officials said.

The Los Alamos laboratory, which was established during World War II as part of the top-secret Manhattan Project that developed the first atomic bomb, remains one of the top nuclear arms manufacturing facilities in the US.

this seems very strange to me...

if this goes any further and something happens, and then in the near future something else happens involving anything nuclear. i just want it to be known that i said something.

just saw this post in a similar thread

It strikes me as too much all of a sudden. The whole nuclear front thing has been mostly clear for several years and now all of a sudden, all in row. Like foreshadowing....I don't like it.
