D10 +++ :
Closeup of MSR from the southeast (1977).
-
De-commissioning is in progress as evidenced by the de-installed equipment around the base of
the MSR pyramid.
-
The device just to the right of the light standard
was part of the barometric sensing system that detected the change in air pressure from
a nuclear blast and activated seals in the MSR's blast doors and shutters in the power plant
stacks to prevent damage.
