Reaction in progress
The structure is replaced with Glowing Obsidian, and there are hostile Zombified Piglins and item drops spread around.

Loot table
The top row of the chest shows the possible items for each drop. It is equally weighted between the item types, and the stack sizes are always the same per item. The hotbar shows an example yield from a single run of the Nether Reactor.
