Japan Earthquake/Tsunami

That's what NHK is saying.....hydrogen

well ta add ontop of the ractor 3 blowing its top i just stumbled on somthing saying a aftershock has sent another 10foot tsumani rippling about

Am looking at NHK atm and they say no tsunami has been spotted yet.....

Sounds like a SimCity scenario. /cue ufo invasion

Good lord...

Taazy, what's your source? I know a couple of the other forums I visit would like appreciate a link to that site, as your source seems to have info at least a few minutes before NHK English. :)

Here's the link:

also getting info from NHK live thru cnn.com

wether it withstood it or not, id still be chunkin in my pants

Thanks! I passed it along.

Maybe this has been covered but there's thing on Yahoo saying that there could be a 2nd Tsunami... WTH did this come from?

There was a report that a 2nd tsunami was coming however the JP agency did not confirm sighting a new tsunami approaching the coast.

ya, the reactor itself is inside of a steel shell, wich is housed inside of the concrete dome, or box in this case. what i was meaning by blowing its top was the gass's exploded inside of the concrete dome and blew off its top (same with reactor #1)

now if in the event a full meltdown goes off then things will be really bad, in the case of #3 if the box is still intact the core would melt thru and just polp onto the floor of the containment building and if very lucky, sit there. if not it can burn thru the floor and thru the gorund till it hits the water table.

once it were to hit that all hell would brake lose. it would prob do the same thing it would have done at 3mile island and crack the ground all around for about half a mile and send super heated radioactive stream gysers in all directions.

for #1, since its roof is missing already, they would be screwd from the get go

3-4 employees injured from the recent blast

7 are missing

make that either 4,600 +1 One dead Canadian... =(

Quebec Priest dead in Japan Quake group

Lord Tunderin, I knew there was a likelyhood, that probably a jesuit priest was on a mission there, might have been teaching ESL there.

<facepalm>

Guess Canada is coming to help in the effort regardless...
