[QUOTE="Hobbes, post: 1483166, member: 3371"] Uh Oh Developing emergency at the Fukushima nuclear power plant. When the earthquake and tsunami hit, the reactor shut down normally but they also had a fire and loss of coolant to the reactor core. They are trying to inject cooling water now but the pressure inside the containment vessel is so high they will have to release some of the radioactive gas first in order to lower the pressure enough to inject more cooling water. It sounds like they are worried about uncovering the core. [/QUOTE]
