Into Eternity The Movie - Synopsis. Documentary 2009, 75 min, HD 16:9Every day, the world over, large amounts of high-level radioactive waste created by nuclear power plants is placed in interim storages, which are vulnerable to natural disasters, man-made disasters, and to societal changes.
In Finland the world's first permanent repository is being hewn out of solid rock - a huge system of underground tunnels - that must last 100,000 years as this is how long the waste remains hazardous. Once the waste has been deposited and the repository is full, the facility is to be sealed off and never opened again. Or so we hope, but can we ensure that? And how is it possible to warn our descendants of the deadly waste we left behind? Www.energia.fi/en/publications/nuclear waste.pdf. The Nuclear Illusion. Olkiluoto Nuclear Power Plant.
