Thousands evacuate as Fukishima nuclear emergency is declared
They sent in the robot [specially built to be radiation resistant] yesterday. The TV camera necessary to guide its movements failed in less than two hours [the theoretical limit for the robot] due to the high radiation [which can destroy electronic components almost as easily as it can living cells]. So, they were able to do little. What they saw before failure will likely NOT be made public, but was very troubling - melted fuel, holes in the containment vessel, rusted and broken components - total chaos. Several of the reactors are NOT stable and are heating up as I write. Remember that the radiation levels increased by an amazing 736% since the last time a reading was done. I'd say that it is an EMERGENCY situation, but it isn't even making the news....well, it will soon...but then it will be too late for Japan and the World - for those near Fukishimi, it will be 'all she wrote'. ::headexplode::
