Japan nuclear plant confirms meltdown of two more reactors
I'm really disappointed that the media here in the States has largely forgotten about this story.
MSNBC has a gamma ray camera's perspective. Incredible. Astonishing. Frightening.
The operator of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant said fuel rods in two more reactors were likely to have suffered a meltdown soon after they were crippled by the 11 March earthquake and tsunami in north-east Japan.
Confirmation by Tokyo Electric Power (Tepco) that fuel in the cores of reactors 2 and 3 had melted came days after new data confirmed a similar meltdown in reactor 1 about 16 hours after the disaster.
