Information about the incident at the Fukushima Nuclear Plants in Japan hosted by http://web.mit.edu/nse/ :: Maintained by the students of the Department of Nuclear Science and Engineering at MIT

Posted on March 15, 2011 by mitnse

The pressure in the pool was seen to decrease from three atmospheres to one atmosphere after the noise, suggesting possible damage. Radiation levels on the edge of the plant compound briefly spiked at 8217 microsieverts per hour but later fell to about a third that.

A close watch is being kept on the radiation levels to ascertain the status of containment. As a precaution Tokyo Electric Power Company has evacuated all non-essential personnel from the unit. The company’s engineers continue to pump seawater into the reactor pressure vessel, in an effort to cool it..more @ [NSE]Nuclear Science & Engineering at MIT

..or you can choose to get the facts from the MSM.

Glenn Beck had a good program today, showing the MSM is parading nuclear fear to further their agenda, with much propoganda coming from Soros-funded organizations.

He also said the MSM is ignoring the “fallout” on our economy due to the fact that Japan will stop buying our debt bonds, as they will have to invest in their own recovery.

As I understand it the zirconium coating reacts at about 1200 degrees and strips off an atom of Hydrogen. The rod is then oxidized. The build up of Hydrogen which has been planed for results in an explosion which is directed to the blow out panels located above the top of the vessel. The pellets themselves are made out of ceramic and will melt above 12,000 degrees.

Due to these events a hydrogen tank blew up.

Huh? I don't think so.
