Video of Fukushima I Nuke Plant Explosion

Youtube video of the explosion of the reactor No.1 (in Japanese). The news seems to be sometime after the explosion and before 4 PM, because the newscaster says the 4PM press conference by the Atomic Safety Agency has been postponed.

According to this news,
  • At 3PM 3/12/11, about 30 minutes before the explosion took place, TEPCO (the power company) announced that it was successful in relieving the pressure in the fuel core container.

  • The fuel rods are half-exposed, due to lower water level.

  • Cesium and Iodine have been detected in the atmosphere near the plant. [Both are products of nuclear fission.]

  • 4 people were injured.
