Hi all,
Was reading articles on neutron stars and black holes when I started thinking about magnetic fields. I think it is a fact that magnetic shields on Earth block out the harmful radioactive solar flares that come from the sun. So in the article i was reading it mentioned something about scientists being able to make magnetic fields but none as strong as that of a neutron star's.
So i was thinking if they can make large enough magnetic fields to cover that of a nuclear power plant or a nuclear waste dump or whatever then why don't they. As it is proven that humans can safely pass through them by the mere fact that we have a space station i don't see why you couldn't put one over a power plant to reduce the already quite slim chances of an accident like Chernobyl happening again.
Thanks
