Dr. Lowell: If the core is exposed for whatever reason, the fuel heats beyond core heat tolerance in a matter of minutes. Nothing can stop it.

"See any evidence of a hull fracture?" "No," the ensign answered, "just the two burn-throughs. I wonder what went wrong?" "A for-real China Syndrome. It finally happened to somebody." Ames shook his head. If there was anything the navy preached about reactors, it was safety. "Get the transducer against the hull. We'll see if anybody's alive in there." 3.
