Just FYI, I read Sunny in Chenobyl a while back which looks at this mythical pool of debris in the Pacific Ocean. Whilst it does exist, its not in the traditional sense. During an expedition to collect real pieces of debris from the area (i.e. carrier bags, plastic bottles, etc.) they encountered almost no debris. Tests did show a high-ish amount of suspended particles, but they wernt visible.
