    Just sitting outside, exposed to the elements, changing temperatures and humidity? What a brilliant idea.

    There’s a reason we aren’t doing this.

      I mean, the containers are steel filled with concrete. We also leave our bridges and buildings outside, exposed to the elements.

      The place in the world you are most likely to know the exact amount of radiation you are receiving at any moment is probably at a nuclear power plant. Its not like they just abandon them and never check on them or anything. They sit out in the open just… chillin. Being generally monitored but mostly just… chillin.

      Thankfully we have this miracle invention called paint . You can hit one of these things with a train and you’ll kill the train. The flask will be fine. https://youtu.be/1mHtOW-OBO4?si=_VEjko6YDyKfnz31

      We do do this all the time. This is currently the solution. We put it in giant flasks and store it on site because ninnies like you won’t let us bury it
