It reminds me of a Star Trek bridge in several ways.
only one editing bobble stuck out to me this time, right around "reactivity was added to the bottom of the reactor."
And taken as a whole... this, gentlemen, is why we do not override safety systems, and when one must be overridden for the sake of a test we especially do not keep disabling more of them. Even then it would have been fine if they'd just put the control rods back in in smaller and more separated groups, rather than hitting the button to do them all at once.
