Robots find dangerous levels of radition at Fukushima nuke plant
April 17, 2011, Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power, Fukushima Prefecture, Japan: A pair of sleek Packbot robots are exploring the interior of the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station Unit 3. The findings from these droids were bleak as they detected radiation levels too high which will prevent repair crews from going inside. government and TEPCO officials announced for the first time that spent fuel rods in Unit 2 were damaged, and contaminated water was found in other areas of the plant. They also confirmed there was more damage to fuel rods in troubled reactors, and that fuel pellets had melted.///A sleek Packbot robot exploring the interior of the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station Unit 3.

March 11, 2011, Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power, Fukushima Prefecture, Japan: Video of the March 11, 2011 tsunami released by the Tokyo Power and Electric Company (TEPCO). Japan hopes to stop pumping radioactive water into the sea on Sunday which should help ease concerns in neighboring China and South Korea over the spread of radiation. TEPCO is struggling to contain the worst atomic crisis since Chernobyl. Engineers say they are far from in control of the damaged reactors and it could take months to stabilize them and years to clear up the toxic mess left behind. ///Video frame still of the March 11, 2011 tsunami hitting the Fukushima Daiichi Power plant.

Expat science buff monitors radiation levels in Tokyo
March 24, 2011, Minato Ward, Tokyo, Tokyo Prefecture, Japan: 30-year-old Steve Danieletto, is an Australian expat living in Tokyo while working as the IT Manager for the English info magazine Metropolis. Danieletto, a science major, has been intrigued by the radiation danger and began taking daily samples and posting them on Youtube. His readings have been a relief to expats living in Tokyo as many distrust official Japanese figures. According to Danieletto, the air quality in Tokyo is safe at the moment, averaging about 0.02 micro sieverts, except for one day last week when there was a spike in which normal levels were 20 times higher. He also discovered that many plants have been getting double the amount of readings, especially due to the past three days of rain. Japanese officials have announced that there are low levels of radiation in spinach, milk, and now drinking water, leading to a shortage of bottled water anywhere in the Tokyo area.///Plants reading more than doubl radiation levels than the air at Roppongi Hills: Steven Danieletto taking geiger counter readings in the Roppongi District of Tokyo..
