This is an early designed (late 50’s design) plant, it doesn’t have a secondary containment dome. If they lose control and there is a steam explosion radiation will likely spread.

Fukushima I?

Supposedly it does.

Then there is this about reactor 1:

“Fukushima reactor pressure may have hit 2.1 times capacity -METI,” Maeda, Rita, Reuters wire service, quoting Japan Trade Ministry (20:30 GMT) 12 March 2011 (Tokyo time)

Reactor 2 is also experiencing cooling problems.

They are racing to get batteries there. The reactors will melt down without them.
