Radiation Levels at Tsukuba, 75 km. North of Tokyo, Lower Than Yesterday

As of today, Thursday, March 17, 2011 at 9:50 am: .10 microSv/hour.


See chart measuring current levels here: http://www.aist.go.jp/taisaku/ja/measurement/index.html


I've searched everywhere on the Japanese media and can find has no information about a fire at reactor #4 or the water draining out of the reactor cores like is being reported in the western media...Zip, nada, none. Where does the western press get these reports? This sounds like hysterical BS.

  1. Mike,
    Perhaps the Western media are getting their reports from the same place that Japanese TV are getting them (or maybe from Japanese TV itself), or from Google. You know Google? Very useful.

    Mino Monta's program has actually built little models of the 4 reactors and you can clearly see the damage to all 4.

    Also, try Googling 福島第1原発4号機

Comments must be succinct & relevant to the story. Comments are checked frequently and abusive, rude or profane comments will be deleted. I’m just one of many bloggers who answer questions online and sometimes for the press. I usually handle questions about Japan, marketing or the economy, so in those areas I’m more likely to make sense and less likely to say something really stupid. If I post something here that you find helpful or interesting, that’s wonderful. This is my personal blog. If you don't like what you have read here then, just like when you go into a restaurant or bar that allows smoking, if you don't like it, there's something at the front that has hinges on it and it is called a "door."
