New research suggests that it is better to run away from a nuclear detonation blast zone and the fallout, instead of taking shelter in a building with only limited protection from radiation.

Researcher Michael Dillion, an atmospheric scientist at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in California, had his research published in January by The Royal Society, which is a mathematical, physical, and engineering sciences journal.

In his research he created a mathematical model of nuclear fallout survival in an attempt to determine optimal fallout shelter times following a nuclear detonation. His relatives inquired with him about what they should do if they did indeed see a mushroom cloud.

I have an image of a scientist in a white coat standing in front of a chalk board covered with equations and in the very bottom right-hand corner an "=" sign and the underlined word "RUN!!!"

If you see a mushroom cloud it is proably already too late. Basically he was saying if there is a better protected shelter available though, seek it if you do have time.

Dr. Strangelove will have to do.
