Here we see some of the 800,000 liquidators making a survey of the radiation in the #Chernobyl exclusion zone to determine the extent of the damage. My collaborator, @proftbs @SWNuclearHub, has recently returned to repeat the exercise, with a drone: bbc.co.uk/news/science-envir…

It was pretty surreal having ITV news following us around for the final couple of days of our fieldwork in Chernobyl, but it was fun nonetheless! Tune into ITV news tonight at 6.30 and 10 to see the longer story! #lookmum #imonthetelly

The @BristolUni @NCNRobotics UAS team have earned their flight hours! Over nine field days, the total airborne time was 24 hrs flying 730 km to produce comprehensive 15 square kilometre radiation map. Good work @DrKieranWood @proftbs, @D_Connor94, Yannick, Peter, and Sevda.

What a beastie! Now being prepped for Chernobyl...
The drones are growing! This giant M600 is destined to carry a scanning LiDAR for mapping sites contaminated with nuclear waste. @UOBFlightLab @NCNRobotics @SWNuclearHub
