political and that moscow will seek to bring book back to russia. russia set to start up for iran's first nuclear power plant on saturday saying the joint project shows to iran should have access to peaceful atomic energy there we have operations will be controlled by the ones nuclear watchdog and it's expected to be fully operational in about a month. and plans to build a mosque near the side of the nine eleven attacks are still going and feeling among some new yorkers adverts against the proposal have appeared on city buses raising debate over religious freedom and the rights to free speech. and what the disastrous consequences of the gulf of mexico oil spill we investigate if the goal is really worth such a high price. the explosion of one. of mexico's the entire world according to various estimates six to fifteen million

liters of oil clues to into the water each day for three and a half months in the soviet union underground nuclear explosions were used to deal with leaking whelps they stem the flow of oil within a short period of time. nuclear explosion is safe and very effective economically a different method has been used in the gulf of mexico installed a special cap on the leaking pipe the task now is to skim the oil slick which now covers nearly two thirds of the gulf surface some one million square kilometers one tenth of the oil spilled has formed this slick even if engineers eventually succeed in skimming oil from the surface approximately five hundred million liters of oil will remain on the ocean floor and in various steps it's not the first time such a catastrophe has occurred what prices humankind ready to pay for the world's most widely used fossil fuel is it possible to prevent these disasters in the future

aftermath of such oil spills be dealt with quickly and effectively. the world's reserves of oil are running out to keep it flowing more drilling rigs are being open with each passing year. each new oil field. under water requires more sophisticated production methods. the more difficult the process the higher the risks the gulf of mexico oil spill is a strike. leaking oil can be stopped by a number of technological. as it turns out all existing methods of stemming the flow of oil do not work in a crisis situation the set of measures available today is simply not

a quick. commision ecologist he was a member of an official international delegation invited to mexico in early june two thousand and ten. the russian specialist told the mexican government and united states senators about their proposals on how to block the leaking wellhead. specialists spoke of a concrete solution. in the past they used nuclear explosions still to spread of fires on oil fields. they presented the set of techniques which could be applied to the leaking wellhead. an underground explosion was used on august tenth one thousand nine hundred seventy two to deal with an accident on a major gas field near the village of any eastern ukraine many of the villagers employed at the oil derricks lived only four hundred metres from where it was extracted when they were drilling

a new will to add to the thirty four already in use gas suddenly gushed out under enormous pressure that. was relaxing after a day's work. it was a run of the mill drilling procedure. nearly reached the guests when. there was a very low noise. has come from. so i was totally confused. has hardly ever left the village where he was born. the accident at the well occurred during a test drilling. close to his heart three of his good work mates had died there. store a huge plume of gas and condensed steam gushed out of the well. all the points that were pushed into this it. fell in the hill

a long distance away toward the road twisted like coils which really segues me only . an emergency team was immediately dispatched to the scene but was unable to cope with the incredibly high pressure of gas inside the well which approached five hundred outness fears. says that's it i think yasin steam came from the. up to the sky and then rained down on the grass and vegetable goldens. everything in the soil. and this stuff was went flying to you and it was. as if somebody has spilled diesel fuel the precipitation poisoned everything around they set light to the gas escaping from the well and the most harmful substances were burnt in the flames and then just the crew still has vivid memories of the roaring gas torch scientists estimated it was one hundred metres. below or a flame was right there. it could be seen from

a farm. there was this much light at night is during the day and the noise was so lounge we couldn't tell it was terrible very young they couldn't sleep at night the noise made them tremble. it was then decided to use an underground nuclear explosion the method had been tested that would positive it was back in one nine hundred sixty six the situation there was compounded by the fact that the malfunctioning well was not the only source of gushing gas. there was a sudden pressure surge. straight. majors amounts of hydrogen sulfide began basically. contamination populated area. the operation was caught on film scientists put together

a four minute tape later they took a. pride in showing it to the rest of the world the plan looks simple enough another well is drilled next to the one weekend where a nuclear charges placed. on project materials ready. to sink in deep shock at an angle to the gas well. nuclear explosion was to be set off in plastic geological material. in permeable straight. a bit of a silly if is the scientist specializing in physics and mathematics he's devoted himself to studying and making nuclear charges for peaceful purposes these bombs contain special isotopes which have a short half life. yes products are very dangerous but they also are short lived

this means that their radioactivity goes down quickly means that we've never contaminated anything. the nuclear physicist knows how difficult it is to pinpoint exactly where the end of a new will will be when dealing with gaps of more than a kilometer. a nuclear explosion of. thirty to forty meters between the wells the distances and for an explosion to pinch the well but the. depth was around fifteen hundred meters as we needed to approach the troubled well at that depth as close as rico simply could. so that's what we did when it put the flames out thanks. the underground explosion triggered a small scale earthquake as a result the shelves began to move squeezing the shaft shut. come in explosives are not powerful enough to achieve this.

and. the explosion formed a hollow underground sphere with a radius of twenty to forty meters the newly hardened molten rock created a natural tomb for the radioactive waste. has been successfully blocked and gas is no longer leaking supervisors found no trace of radiation either in the air or on the ground nuclear material ended up buried at a depth of one thousand five hundred meters. question is that so much about taxpayers' money. age of obviously come to an end internet based social networks are changing the way we live they are

also forced. the close up team has been to the kaluga recently when the car industry is rapidly developing. now margy goes. where the first russian fleet was more. where the indigenous people were the first car dixie's navigator and where russia's glorious history is still visible. welcome relief on mostly. russia close up on r.t.

. lake by call as one of the largest and deepest freshwater lakes in the world its unique species of fish and microorganisms are of huge interest to biologists the next research expedition for two deep submergence research vehicles near one and near to is already being planted. this immersive bulls are known for their ability to maintain a stable position it any depth and in heavy currents and their equipment manipulators that can perform high precision operations underwater and are crude by top professionals. film director james cameron used mere vessels to do deep water shooting for his movie titanic he also suggested the american government should use these russian submersibles to stop the oil spill in the gulf of mexico because. cameron is convinced that mirrors are the best of their kind in the world.

is run by the russian economy of signs government would have needed to officially address the russian government but that never happens. james cameron has expressed his wish but the government hasn't therefore we continue a research here they would have been happy to help out. russian specialists who took part in the deepwater shooting for titanic were very enthusiastic about james cameron suggestion to stop the oil spill. way or no oil it would have to be done in cooperation with the workers who know how . and how it must be handled there would have to be teamwork and the mere submersible would be a key advantage in this project. any project is interesting and this one is special because it deals with a disaster that affects the whole world and so we would never refuse from taking up

such a task. deep submergence research vehicles mere warnin mere two could have fitted to stop or on the oil spilling pipe in the gulf of mexico. now that the oil company has finally succeeded in doing so on its own another problem arises how would they clean up thousands of tons of oil dispersed in the ocean mirrors are unique in that they're compatible with any kind of manipulators. there's a huge amount of oil is seabed imagine a vacuum cleaner just like the one you have a new york both meant and if you use that on the seabed it will suck in all resting but it will suck in almost all of it but the question is once you do with the residue today there are technologies that can remove the remaining oil whether it's on the surface or a mile under water. green biology and is the founder of the

international environmental and social committee he has consulted most of the domestic and foreign oil and gas companies operating in russia but business circles don't seem to be in a hurry to take his advice. we have to kill him he is capable of. production but they're expensive. and would cause the end of the product to soar well we're always trying to make it as low as possible. dispersed in the ocean water has no commercial value cleaning devices used to soak it up from the surface of the gulf of mexico need to be somehow recycled a research lab has come up with an unexpected solution. you know quite a number of. two hundred feet on patrol in one hundred. trying

to make use of this amazing. just as. the researchers have developed a new population of salt resistant microorganisms that feed. breaking it down into components that are harmless to the environment. the final product of oil hydrocarbon breakdown are carbon dioxide and water but it is a gradual process after several years of laboratory tests scientists have decided to publish their results microorganisms begin to interact with the oil spill spreading on the bay in front of our eyes future pollution control will be exercised naturally without human intervention the only serious drawback of this method is that it's very time consuming. we have already seen the first environmental effect that we were trying to prevent the spread of the oil. it has

been localized and the destruction of the spill will take from a few weeks to several months to be. currently microorganisms or a bulky expensive yet very effective method for the final stage of an oil spill cleanup when the leaking well has been stopped up and most of the oil has been collected. the most effective way to this day is the collection of oil from the water's surface we need to develop a strategy not to let breached the shoreline because if that happens. to work creases drastically. today eager to say you can is responsible for the technical any ecological safety of the activities and operations of one of russia's largest oil companies. he thinks the most dangerous situation is when drilling of new bore holes coincides with repair work.

this very moment hole is open any human can lead to a terrible terrible disaster. in the gulf of mexico the catastrophe actually happened right in the moment drilling. on our platforms we use the so-called equipment used. then help you to totally block the border. and all of this is actually control. person who doesn't have to be near it. the main task in case of any accident is to cut off the uncontrolled release of oil or gas as soon as possible.

problem was solved in the summer of one thousand nine hundred two on one of the fields near the village of part of my sky in eastern ukraine an accident occurred four hundred meters away from the settlement by an oil derrick gas under tremendous pressure burst from the ground. which is very helpful for the environment especially if this hydrogen sulfide. every living thing around this burning to which kills flowing to the. nuclear explosion is an environmentally friendly method which is very cost effective. and everything has been. used to specialize in transporting especially heavy cargo pensioner he remembers all too clearly the day he transported a nuclear bomb to an oil well near the village of pet of my sky.

i came to work they told me to go to the railway station. had a container proximately a large safe loaded on. to that for soldiers with machine guns to get in there with a major got inside. at that time he didn't have a clue about what kind of cargo he was taking to the rig. he became suspicious a couple days later when all of the villages were evacuated from the neighboring town while he and other drillers set up a cordon two kilometers from the mine to. begin to go down until it became. a third moments everyone started because the will was killed already but the fire started up again and continued.

was born here he's now a professor of physics at a major university. in the summer of one thousand nine hundred two the scientists to be at home on vacation in voluntarily a witness to an accident and the attempts to fix it. approximately one hundred meters to the north of here. and a charge was put into. or it was located twenty meters from the rake. of about three and a half kilometers. later on when it rechecked the calculations of the moscow scientists several times and studied all the peculiarities of the entire operation . explosion was said ten am. the weather was just as hot as in one thousand nine hundred that all the strength of the

explosion was three points. in comparison with the bombs dropped on hiroshima and nagasaki approximately six times more powerful the explosion was to be set off in a heavily populated area in the european part of the country as a result its capacity was reduced to the minimum so the clamping length appeared to be too little and the gas made its way to disservice via cracks in the earth. would increase the capacity by three times while the distance remained the same. carried out special calculations and clumping length. six times for this particular . and therefore it was necessary to either come close. to the church bow or of course increasing the strength of the explosion is always easier and safer. because of their concerns about the consequences the ukrainian operation was not successful

in total the soviet union carried out five nuclear explosions to overlap five different emergency mines three of them were complete successes. summarizing the experience of past years at the end of may two thousand and ten russian scientists developed a fast and reliable way to eliminate the consequences of the accident in the gulf of mexico using conventional explosives instead of nuclear once you know that it's a beer first it was proposed to put a bunch of charges inside the flowing well of course the charges diameter would be smaller than the well itself some. several more wells are drilled in parallel and a large number of explosives are stored there. first the charges laid out in the very loyal wells are detonated thus in certain places a pipe is destroyed and voids are formed simultaneously now and dense and big oil

will not be hampering the blowing up of the very surface of the pipe and. the breaks formed are immediately filled up with rock from the bottom that's how the well is sealed. oil pressure in the pipe me move one of the created plugs but since there are several of them they'll be able to hold the flow of crude oil. this is just one of the possible ways of containing a rapid oil spill but they need to be adapted depending on specific extraction conditions. likewise postville clean amendments must also become more various and more flexible as the world learned in the gulf of mexico tomorrow may be too late.

signed up to fill in the military because i thought that it was my duty and that it was something that i could do to help my country i believe my government thought that it is necessary for americans to vietnam there was a lot of drug abuse the us a lot of murder of american officers by american soldiers there were a lot of. ways to go out and buy. before the war i always thought i wanted to win a lot of medals and to have a lot of decorations but afterwards i realize that they don't mean anything. that importance. i don't i don't i never kept the medal. and says spelling division. among those. four months of

preparation was the pain the failures still haunts third mine. the last effort to keep the lead on the eastern front and. lead citadel of friendship and i and prayed so please show me. the battle won and a great sacrifice of loss. and the rooms are still healing. and. nerve home advantage of people and military hardware. the most heavily reinforced area. of the battle of course. it lasted forty nine days one of them bloodiest battles and the turning point a move to push the burning bulge on our.
