Radiation Levels at Reactor #2 At Highest Level So Far; Neutron Beam Observed At Least 13 Times
http://bbnworldnews.com/newspost/radiation-level-at-fukushima-reactor-no-2-at-its-highest-level-recorded-so-far-neutron-beam-observed-13-times-2/ Per the Japan Nuclear Agency: the Radiation level at Fukushima reactor No. 2 at its highest level recorded so far. From Reuters: “Radiation at the crippled Fukushima No.2 nuclear reactor was recorded at the highest level since the start of the crisis, Japan’s nuclear safety agency said on Wednesday. An agency spokesman said 500 millisieverts per hour of radiation was measured at the No.2 unit on Wednesday. Engineers have been trying to fix the plant’s cooling system after restoring lighting on Tuesday.” And some more truthy news from Kyodo: Electric Power Co. said Wednesday it has observed a neutron beam, a kind of radioactive ray, 13 times on the premises of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant after it was crippled by the massive March 11 quake-tsunami disaster. TEPCO, the operator of the nuclear plant, said the neutron beam measured about 1.5 kilometers southwest of the plant’s No. 1 and 2 reactors over three days from March 13 and is equivalent to 0.01 to 0.02 microsieverts per hour and that this is not a dangerous level. The utility firm said it will measure uranium and plutonium, which could emit a neutron beam, as well. Read Entire Article |

This shouldn't be a surprise to anyone.....this plant with all the reactors has been the main source of ongoing misery in Japan since this disaster started. Did anyone believe even for a minute that this was a "minor reactor disaster"?
![]() Look at today's headlines: Reactor Core May Be Leaking at Damaged Fukushima Plant (1) http://www.businessweek.com/news/2011-03-25/reactor-core-may-be-leaking-at-damaged-fukushima-plant-1-.html Well no sh!t Sherlock! It's been damaged since the first week! Does everyone think they've been having a picnic there for a couple weeks? IT'S THE DAMN REACTOR CORE. Neutrons have been pouring out and this hell has been in progress since the first couple days. Denial does not make everything OK. It doesn't just disappear. |

Does it kill bugs? Or just make them mutate into giant horrendous creatures? Yes... ![]() ![]() |

Don't have to wait for the whales - they'll be mutated somehow. Radioactivity has fallen in the rain/snow all over the western states, plus Pennsylvania, New York, Ohio and lots of other CONUS locales. Countries overseas were also tracking "the radioactive cloud" - but it's not just one cloud - it's a broken plume in the atmosphere.
Notice how we're not getting any visual depictions of said 'plume' since March 17. We're only hearing via just about every news source that this disaster is outputting almost the same amount of radiation as Chernobyl. Where are the world watchdogs? No plain-language details of how much per hour those things are belching into the sea, atmosphere? No graphs? No new computer-generated plume animations? All they're saying is "don't worry about it" as if we were all infants. |

![]() -------------------- Workers at Japan Nuke Plant 'Lost the Race' to Save Reactor, Expert Says March 29, 2011 http://www.foxnews.com/world/2011/03...r-expert-says/ "Workers at the crippled Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear plant appeared to have "lost the race" to save one of the reactors, a U.S. expert told the Guardian. Richard Lahey, who was head of safety research for boiling water reactors at General Electric when the company installed the units at the Japan plant, says the radioactive core in the Unit 2 reactor appears to have melted through the bottom of its containment vessel and on a concrete floor..... ...Highly toxic plutonium was the latest contaminant found seeping into the soil outside the plant, TEPCO said Monday.....The latest mishap came Tuesday, when three workers trying to connect a pump outside the Unit 3 reactor were splashed by radioactive water that gushed from a pipe. Though they were wearing suits meant to be waterproof and protect against high levels of radiation, nuclear safety official Hidehiko Nishiyama said the men were soaked to their underwear with the contaminated water." |
