An explosion happened in No2 reactor, and suppression pool seems to have been damaged. A press conference is performed soon.

They're saying the container's been breached now and they're evacuating staff. Starting to sound like the worst case has happened.

8,217μSv/h radioactive rays were detected in the sites of the nuclear power generation. |

If I understood well, they cannot pump seawater into the reactor(s) any more because of the extremely high pressure built up inside. And making a vent breach in containers is too risky because of the presence of explosive hydrogen?

know that under the debris and the mud, there is still a person waiting for help. also drinking water, foods, blankets are necessary for 450,000 survivors.

400,000μSv/h radioactive rays were detected in the sites of the nuclear power generation. When somebody touched it, this numerical value means that the serious health damage gets up. |

I don't know what to say other than prayer at this point. What do they mean with fire at the #4 reactor BTW? IT has been shutdown for maintenance for a long time now. (No decay heat)
The issue is with the pools damaged its almost a straight shot to the reactor meaning containment is breached. With only 50 people there now there is no way they can contain a major radiation release and with only the fire department pumps working to pump seawater into the cores they are likely constantly having to run outside (Likely now fully clothed in radiation suits) to fuel them.
To be clear here these men and women are heroes the explosions are what is destroying pumps and damaging the containment.

At this point they seem to be accepting that the exposed part of all the rods will melt down. My guess is they are willing to risk damage to avert the potential for complete exposure if the vessel blows. Remember with each hour the decay heat lessens. Normally after 48 hours in normal operation a reactors decay heat lessens to a point where steam pressure pumps have to be augmented with AC motors running from grid power because the rods are too cool to generate much energy. Atleast that is what I am hearing.
This is more than likely to become a 6 out of 7 on the scale.

I don't think this will evolve further. Rods in all reactors were exposed, radiation already broke out, all of the reactors were FUBAR'ed with corrosive seawater and most of them blew up...
unless they plan to set a fire under them, they will just cool down as the heat escapes. And then the citizens will be allowed to return to homes except for ppl who live in a 10km zone, it'll prolly take a month for them. ...unless a new disaster hits, in which case we can just cross Japan off the map (and I'm not trying to be funny) ________________________________ ACXtreme @ deviantart |

at this moment I can only think of either volcanic eruptions or a meteor crashing there. ---

well yeah, considering the number of faults on the area, altho if a quake happens it will be further north. perhaps near Kamchatka. ---

Here are some interesting youtube videos of the earthquake, recorded by regular people:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oQVPfQu50yY A Japanese man has early warning of the earthquake thanks to an app on his computer! The voice eerily counts down...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=871E8_DJ-rw - Guy tries to save his glass cabinet, and soon realizes he should just take cover. The TV which was on the entire time starts to show scary warnings, which he comments to in Japanese.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fcy9ubGGilQ&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uth-Z24L0lk&feature=related - A British (?) English teacher in japan recounts her earthquake experience. The first link is the video she took during, the second is her recounting the experience. She manages to inject some humor.

Powerful quake hits Shizuoka:
A powerful earthquake with a preliminary magnitude of 6.0 jolted central Japan on Tuesday night.
The Japan Meteorological Agency says the quake with an intensity of 6 plus on the Japanese seismic scale zero to 7 hit at 10:31 PM.

Edited by: Cpt Advile on 15/03/2011 18:22:40 I hope this isn't another pre-shock like the 7.2 one, 1day before the 9.0 one. Seriously, it was said that another even bigger quake might follow soon because the whole stress wasn't released 100% with the 9.0 quake.
My main question is, I believe in karma and how everything happens for a reason, but what could be the reason for such torment on Japanese people? All I could condemn are their crazy semi-sick/fetish TVshows, but otherwise they seemed to be highly collective and more or less spiritual people more or less. Or is it a wake-up call for the rest of the world to start thinking and acting more positively?

The genocidal japanese invasion of china during ww2 might be a contender. Nasty vicious end of the world stuff with entire city populations being exterminated.

Then who would be the target of the karma? More specifically who initiated what actions that would bring about the effect of the cause after they are long dead?
As far as I can see any concept of karma deals with the individual, not an entire nation. A nation is a concept, not an entity. - - [SERVICE] Corp Standings For POS anchoring

Who knows how these things work exactly. Sins of the fathers maybe? He asked for a reason karma might be calling on the japanese people and I gave one.

Edited by: Cpt Advile on 15/03/2011 22:37:40 some of the karma laws state that parents unfinished business (karma-debt) goes on to their children, but seriously I don't think it's about that. It seems more and more like a general example for the rest of the world. Big disasters promote unity.
In another news: A fire has been found in the northeastern corner of Reactor 4 building at Fukushima Daiichi plant
