On: Has There Been a Nuclear Incident in the Arctic?

Yes, but the article immediately acknowledges those are fringe theories:

> A more likely possibility is that some sort of limited nuclear material storage, research, or power generation incident has occurred

What about a nuclear reactor incident on board a ship or submarine?

The article mentions sunken Soviet nuclear submarines and reactor cores as possible contributors.

That's why I'm wondering if that isn't the case. There's a lot of missing reactors out there, a scary number in fact. The Kursk reactor was recovered but there's bound to be a half dozen in that area that general area that are unaccounted for.
