Look up naval nuclear accidents on Wikipedia.

The Fermi 1 incident has been severly overplayed so many times its not funny. The worst part wouldn't have been the nuclear explosion. What would have been worse would have been if the coolant, which in that unit, was Liquid Sodium, had gotten to the lake. Not sure if you have ever seen the experiments where the scientist drops in a gram of sodium into a beaker of water and the thing violently burns just from contact with water. And that was only a gram or so of the stuff. Imagine if the coolant had leaked to Lake Erie. Thousands of gallons of liquid sodium in the lake would have relatively nuked the surrounding area. By the time the partial meltdown had occured the safety shutdown systems were already causing the nuclear reaction to halt thus stopping any possible nuclear explosion.
