Japan Earthquake: Nuclear Plants at Fukushima Daiichi
I am more concerned about the revelation that they held back facts than I am about the the actual value of the numbers they will report. What this shows me is that their collective behavior may actually be exacerbating the disaster. Their intellectual feudalism is hindering efforts to find a...- georgiworld

Japan Earthquake: Nuclear Plants at Fukushima Daiichi
I have refrained from condeming both the government and Tepco but this has changed everything. These numbers must be horrifying to people who understand their significance. This ongoing catastrophe is being managed by the eternal wisdom of Japanese bureaucrats. The Bridge over the River Kwai...- georgiworld

What about the video you posted and I mistakenly re-posted? Is there a translation of that?- georgiworld

Interesting video showing external situation around the reactors. Pity it's in Japanese. Why is the US media silent? It seems there is a sheet covering something in the video in which someone on another forum believes is a fuel assembly and RPV cap...- georgiworld

Japan Earthquake: Nuclear Plants at Fukushima Daiichi
Gunderson first states that integrity of the RVP was maintained and the fuel pool was empty, it then got filled with gas and exploded upward. He then goes on to say that the radioactive debris that was found afterward were part of the plume of the fuel pool. Well was it empty or not? Can...- georgiworld

Japan Earthquake: Nuclear Plants at Fukushima Daiichi
Thank you Astronuk, as always your technical assessment is spot on. My question however is not about what happens to the cladding of the spent fuel but what effect the heat will have on the unspent fuel which was stored in SPF#4. Now while the decay heat was greater in the reactors that were...- georgiworld

Japan Earthquake: Nuclear Plants at Fukushima Daiichi
I wonder if someone can clear something up for me. From the beginning I thought Reactor 4 posed the most danger since the fuel in it, both spent and unspent, were outside of containment. Since then most attention has focused on the three other reactors and the possible breaching of the RPV with...- georgiworld

I must clarify that these images are not my work. I noticed new images and a different interpretation of old ones and wanted feedback from the experts on this forum. The website is quite comprehensive and deserves attention. There are probably errors in the analysis, which I hope the members...- georgiworld

I may be mistaken in reading between the lines but as I read the article the managers of the disaster are attempting to prevent a repeat of what happened in Reactor3 According to the article "Nishiyama said past hydrogen explosions have likely occurred due to hydrogen accumulation caused by the...- georgiworld
