Re: CATASTROPHIC EVENT IN COMING HOURS
at least i learned one lesson... when the government tells you to duct tape your house to make it air tight, they mean go home and we'll be able to inform your relatives of your demise at a later date.

When the government says to duct tape I am going to run like hell to the place I think is out of dangers way.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 979813


This reminds me of something in my early days in the air force. Because of where I base was, in case of a nuclear war, all us airman were supposed to go to a particular building. I asked my sargeant why would we go to a building that had so many glass windows and he said so they can get a body count. That's why we have dog tags.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 979813


oh, the base i was stationed at was number 5 on the probable hit list in event of a nuclear war

GE's BRILLIANT fucking design.

Arial shots show those pools filled with debris and the trammel cranes:

 Quoting: Monkeyfister


In defense to GE, when these reactors were designed, it was thought that the world would have worked out a somewhat international system for reprocessing and storing nuclear waste from the countries who were on board with the plan... really they aren't supposed to hold fuel for more than a few years tops.
 Quoting: Least Servant


wow.. that was 40 years ago though. they were pretty optimistic

why are these things built when we don't know how to turn them off yet?!

Hey can someone sum up this thread in a paragraph??
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1279412


Angry sea god shakes earth and sends big wave in harbor. Many die.

Big wave hits nuke plant. Big wave damages cooling water intake structure and pumps (and most likely a bunch of other process control electrical equipment, piping, structural, etc). Backup power to cooling water system FAILS MISRABLY. Loss of coolant accident, no secondary coolant supply. Plant is doomed.

Drama begins. Steady failures of equipment and safety systems. Boom! Secondary containment buildings and equipment inside get mangled even more. At this point, no chance to get rid of heat. Meltdowns begin.

More ongoing drama. Lies from media. The Brave 50 are sacrificed to the god of Saving Face, the Japanese god most high.

More drama, helicopters dropping water. Futile.

Meltdown into pile of toxic nasty goo.

Radiation madness then begins...fear...buy KI, get out of dodge, wear a facemask in downtown LA.

'They've lost control': French claim Japan is hiding full scale of nuclear disaster as TWO more reactors heat up

Read more: [link to www.dailymail.co.uk]


Really good pictures at this site...even of the attempt to pour water from a helicopter
 Quoting: Madigan


Here is a list of all of Japan's 55 nuclear power stations, all of which house multiple nuclear reactors.

[link to www.japannuclear.com]

There are serious problems at multiple nuclear reactors that are housed at four of Japan's nuclear power stations as follows:

Fukushima Dai-Ichi Nuclear Power Station (Fukushima I)
nuclear reactors 1, 2, 3, & 4 (and very likely 5 & 6)

Fukushima Dai-Ni Nuclear Power Station (Fukushima II)
nuclear reactors 1, 2, & 4

Onagawa Nuclear Power Station
at least one nuclear reactor (but possibly all three nuclear reactors) 1, 2, & 3

Tokai No. 2 Nuclear Power Station
nuclear reactor 2

So...at minimum 9 (and possibly eleven) nuclear reactors are part of this meltdown nightmare.

Here are some details on the surreal situation.

Regarding Fukushima I, the Fukushima Dai-Ichi Nuclear Power Station, per Japan's Nikkei news service, "The Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency (NISA) said Saturday afternoon the explosion at the Fukushima No. 1 nuclear plant could only have been caused by a meltdown of the reactor core."

It is also likely that at least partial meltdown of the reactor core is occurring at FUK-I reactor 3.

[link to nuclearstreet.com]

After yesterday's explosion (and brief fire) at the FUK-I's reactor 4, it is possible that at least partial meltdown of the reactor core is also occurring at FUK-I reactor 4.

[link to www.businessinsider.com]

Thus, three nuclear reactors at FUK-I Nuclear Power Station are likely to be in the process of core meltdown (partial or full) at this time and FUK-I reactor 2 suffered a second explosion yesterday that likely ruptured a containment vessel.

[link to www.businessinsider.com]

Fukushima II, the Fukushima Dai-Ni Nuclear Power Station, is operated by the Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO) and has four nuclear reactors (1,2,3,& 4). FUK-II is located (7.1 miles north of FUK-I) in the town of Naraha and Tomioka in the Futaba District of Fukushima Prefecture in Japan.

Following the tsunami, according to Japanese government officials all four of FUK-II's reactors were successfully automatically shut down. However, cooling water pumps at reactors 1, 2, & 4 sustained damage caused by the tsunami on March 11th.

Here's a link to a TEPCO Press Release dated March 12th that discusses the status of the reactors at the FUK-II plant:

[link to www.tepco.co.jp]

Accordingly, on March 13th an evacuation order (radius of 20 km) was issued because of possible radioactive contamination occurring involving reactors at the FUK-II Nuclear Power Station.

[link to www.rttnews.com]

The Onagawa Nuclear Power Station is operated by the Tohoku Electric Power Company (TEPC), it has three nuclear reactors (1, 2, & 3), and it is located in northeastern Japan.

On March 11th, a fire broke out at the Onagawa Nuclear Power Station's reactor number 4 and raged for two hours.

[link to www.iaea.org]

On March 13th, TEPC stated that the cooling systems at all three reactors at the Onagawa complex were automatically shut down after the earthquake and tsunami and they were functioning properly.

[link to www.cnbc.com]

However, on March 13th a state of emergency was declared at the Onagawa Nuclear Power Station by TEPC because radiation readings in areas surrounding the plant exceeded allowed limits.

[link to www.news.com.au]

The Tokai No. 2 Power Station (Japan's first, built in 1962) is operated by the Japan Atomic Power Company and it is also located in northeastern Japan in the Ibaraki Prefecture. Officials stated that its reactors were able to be automatically shut down after the earthquake and tsunami.

[link to www.iaea.org]

However, on March 13th, the Japanese Fire and Disaster Management Agency reported that a cooling system pump stopped functioning properly at the Tokai No. 2 Power Station.

[link to nuclearstreet.com]

Here's a link to a summary prepared by the IAEA dated today of what has transpired at each of the nuclear power stations in northeastern Honshu, Japan since March 11th.

[link to www.iaea.org]

Here is a list of all of Japan's 55 nuclear reactors:

[link to www.japannuclear.com]

Unfortunately, it appears that this list may come in handy in the near future.

There is also a very detailed preliminary timeline of what has occurred at the Fukushima I Nuclear Power Station that has been compiled here:

When covered in water... the fuel rods are kept at like 90ºF and are in a solid state. After they are uncovered, they heat up to something like 2000ºF, melt into a molten mass... so, yea, drop something that is 2000º into a water table that is probably something like 45-50ºF.... massive steam explosion.
