Nuclear steel cap to cover Chernobyl

Perhaps close to 20 years too late, Chernobyl will be covered with a steel cap.

Shouldn't it have happened then?

And is it really going to stop radiation?

And what happens beneath the cap?

Hi,


Excellent questions:
1.  Sure they had to do it 20 years ago.  At that
     time people were not minded to environment
     as we are today (and hence wouldn't invest
     that huge some of money).
2.  No it will probably not stop entirely the radiatin 
     but will bring it to close to zero (To stop it
     it entirely a thick cover is required).
3.  Beneath the cap the radiation will keep on, grow 
     in time, and finally be vast and concetrated. 
     Brrrrrrrrrrrr. 
Best regards,
