An situation when the temperature inside reactor core reaches such high levels that the fuel rods (made from Uranium) begin to melt their way down and destroy the reactor.
It usually happens when fuel rods cannot be cooled by a cold substance (for example heavy water) and they start vaporising every single molecule of water nearby, thus accelerating the process of building heat. The only thing operators can do now to stop it is to drop control rods, but it can be impossible because of built up pressure (that's how Chernobyl happened). When the control rods are down, the nuclear power plant crew still needs to resume water delivery to the reactor because of nuclear decay
TL:DR Nuclear fuel gets hot and burn it's way down the reactor.

Guy from Fukushima: The tsunami shut down our water pumps and now now the heat level is over the critical point. We have to evacuate whole wing of power plant and get fireman over here. Tell them there's high risk of Nuclear meltdown.

n. 1)When any person tries to blend in with their surroundings (friends, social groups, hardcore niggas, ubahleet noob pwners) and just ends up destroying everything important and making themself look like a fool in this futile attempt.
2) An exploding lizard.

Joey: Yeah, that fag is a straight nuclear cameleon.
2) Steve: OMFG! THAT NUCLEAR CAMELEON IS GONNA EXPLODE!! BLEEEEH!

The Sex act where a male, whom has eaten enough spicy Japanese styled food, that he has not performed a bowel movement all week, in the middle of intercourse onto a hairy male, close to climax the guy stands over him and proceeds to not just ejaculate on the male, but releases several pounds of hot diarrhea on his stomach, that all of her body hair is flatten down

A fart so loud and powerful it may blow your head clean off. Can be easily mistaken for a thermonuclear bomb. Can also be abbreviated to NBB.

a month where you can't create, research, make blueprints or make paper about a nuclear bomb in November.
(you can gather materials thought so you can assemble it at December and launch it)
