The Splitting of the Atom Changed Everything Save Man’s Way of Thinking

The nuclear catastrophe in Japan involving the Fukushima Diichi nuclear power plant is releasing more radiation than had ever been anticipated or seen in the history of man.

At Fukushima, three (3) nuclear reactors with their thousands of tons of highly radioactive nuclear fuel had completely melted down, breached their three containment vessels and formed the equivalent of three separate “China Syndromes,” melting through the hardened bottoms of the three nuclear reactor vessels, then through the steel reinforced concrete floors under the reactors and then into and through into and through the groundwater tables below that and as over 6,000 degree molten masses, burned and melted into the volcanic rock beneath the Islands of Japan. Yet to be determined is just how far into the earth and rock that form the Japanese Islands, the molten masses have gone. What has been determined is that whatever the molten fuel masses have come near or been in contact with have also been rendered highly radioactive for periods that will last for and remain deadly radioactive for periods as long as billions of years. During that time, the molten masses will further pass their radioactivity on to and into any water or life forms they contact or get near. Thus the spreading of deadly radiation will be exponential, both in water and life forms, damaging and destroying all life forms in its path.

For some perspective, what happened at Chernobyl in 1968 and according to the Russians has so far killed over a million people, was a fire that burned less than one quarter (1/4) the amount of fuel in just one of the three Japanese nuclear reactors

The above is a simple though conservative estimate and explanation of the existing scene as a result of just some of the nuclear power used in Japan, a nation that will never fully recover from the nuclear attacks of World War II.
