Saw on the BBC news at 4a.m. this morning of a massive explosion in China.Reports were sketchy at that time but they said at least 17 dead and 30 odd firefighters were missing.More firefighters were on their way to the scene,but emergency services were hanging back a little as they weren't sure what kind of explosives/chemicals etc.they were facing.

Shouldnt think we will ever know the truth about that.

It was an industrial chemical storage facility. We have them here, but with health and safety rules.

What's that, Cem, a human fart gas processing plant you say?

There might be a naval base in Tianjin.

No, not when I looked on google earth............

Last time I saw an explosion like that, which registered on the Richter scale, was when the Ukraine army dropped a couple of shells, just as the Russian army were finishing the restock of an ammunition dump in Donetsk.

It's a submarine base.

Looked like a scene from "the terminator" movie.

Torpedos can use H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide) as a propellent. Is is a light, energy dense fuel that doesn't need an external oxygen supply. Great for propelling torpedoes at high speed for reasonable distances. However, it has a downside which is why the RN stopped using it in the 1950's after an accident and other Western navy's followed suit. If it leaks and comes into contact with copper, things get very interesting, very fast, as the Russians found out on their submarine Kursk.

The intense heat from a propellent fire in a training torpedo in the torpedo room then set off the explosive warheads in other torpedos stored in their racks, only a handful behind the much thicker nuclear containment bulkhead survived the subsequent explosion.

Not saying that is what happened here, but it might of done. Where's Cem when you need a good conspiracy theory.

Sounds like another Bhopal to me. Maybe all the cheap stuff from China does come at a price, after all?
