Robot May Have Found Melted Nuclear Fuel Inside Fukushima Reactor 3
Scientists in Japan have identified what could be fuel debris within the devastated nuclear reactor. Regarded as the worst nuclear disaster since Chernobyl, the incident at Fukushima, which occurred back in 2011, was triggered by a tsunami which knocked out the station’s cooling pumps. Efforts to clean up the site have been ongoing ever since. This week, scientists and engineers … Continue reading

Wildfire Near Crippled Fukushima Plant Doubles in Size; Concern Over Fallout of Highly Radioactive Material
A wildfire has been raging for more than 2 days near the damaged Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant. The fire started in a mountain forest on the outskirts of Namie Town in Fukushima Prefecture. The area is part of a zone designated as “no-entry” due to high radiation levels following the 2011 nuclear disaster. Fukushima and Miyagi prefectures and the … Continue reading
Japan Wants to “Just Drop Tanks” of Fukushima Nuclear Waste into Ocean — Americans Worried over Plumes Hitting West Coast
While the world carries on as though nothing is wrong and it’s not a big deal what took place and CONTINUES to take place in Fukushima Japan, we will ALWAYS try our best to report and remind people it is NOT okay and just because some choose to put it out of their mind or to be in denial does … Continue reading
Lethal Radiation Levels But No Melted Fuel Found in Fukushima Reactor Water
Tainted water inside a reactor containment vessel at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant has shown a radiation level enough to kill a person within 40 minutes, according to TEPCO, the power plant’s owner. The level of radiation was measured by a special robot on Sunday at a point about 30cm (one foot) from the bottom of the containment vessel of … Continue reading
Fukushima Radiation on the United States West Coast Poses No Health Risk, Scientists Say
Despite the devastating nuclear accident at Japan’s Fukushima nuclear power plant in March 2011, scientists studying the waters off the west coast of the United States have concluded that there is no contamination risk to people or the local ecology. Studying the waters of the Pacific coastline, scientists from Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in Massachusetts and from Ottawa’s Fisheries and … Continue reading
