My understanding of TMI is that a relief valve stuck open, but the control room indicator light was designed to show that the command had been sent to close the valve, not that the valve was actually closed. <br /> <br />I've sometimes wondered if a slab of some type of material could be installed at the top of reactor vessels, which would melt and scram the thing via gravity into a solid mass, before the melting point for the vessel itself was reached.
