Jeez. Talk about an area denial weapon. That’s horrifying. Just massive deadly glowing sphere of doom that’s both too energetic and not energetic enough to stop the chain reaction. That’s incredible.

  I’m surprised they had a robot radiation hardened enough to actually try. I’ve got to look up what they did. The whole room it was in was a neutron reflector, the robot would be, and the interference would be crazy from the decay products.
  
  Wonder what they would have done if the robot couldn’t do it.

    It’s not like this was the first time, such a situation came up. And it’s not like we have to guess what plan B looks like.
