It takes time to go from full production to shut down temperature. You can completely SCRAM a reactor and the daughter products from the main reaction will keep popping off particles for quite a while.
And correct me if I’m wrong, but I thought that from the git-go, they lost all power and any emergency power, and there for they couldn’t control/activate/turn on etc. anything to help them shut down safely?
