RE: RE: Nuclear Planet in DISCOVER
Better yet, what about the quantity of neutrinos that would be escaping from
the "earth" reactor. One technique to study neutrinos involves converting
old mines into huge scintillation detectors.

If the Earth's core was indeed a natural fission reactor wouldn't there be
readily detectable physical evidence of it here at the surface, such as a
natural abundance of plutonium isotopes and fission products that would well
up due to vulcanism? Wouldn't you also have other naturally abundant
induced radioactivity isotopes?
