I have blogged before about the idea of nuclear winter. If there is a nuclear conflict in which at least a hundred nuclear warheads are detonated, the soot, soil and smoke thrown into the atmosphere would shut out sunlight for years and crop failures would kill billions that survived the actual conflict. Now scientists are studying what effect a nuclear war might have on the world’s oceans.

Sellafield is a major energy company in the United Kingdom. They have recently collaborated with the University of Liverpool’s Virtual Engineering Centre (VEC) to develop a mixed-reality simulator which imitates the working environment of a nuclear power plant waste removal crane.
