A geeky moment here: Nuclear power plants cannot explode atomically. A reactor is not the same as a bomb and so will not cause a nuclear explosion. The threat of a meltdown is a massive release of radiation...still a very bad thing of course!

Well..

Actually it CAN explode, if the meltdown get's completly out of control(Way Worse that the FUKUSHIMA incident) the Reactor core can melt it's way down to the Earth's core.
When it hits Lava/Magma it littarraly(?) explodes up the way it came down.
Making a shitload of Fallout, and would kill (by Radiation) anything within a 20Km Radius(Fukushima Size reactor)
