PSA, signed yours truly. Just want to give you all an idea of how massive this quake is.

The Richter magnitude scale tells us how much energy was released in an earthquake, and increases with a factor of 1000 per point. That means a 5.4 earthquake is 1000 times more powerful than a 4.4 earthquake, and 1000000 times more powerful than a 3.4 earthquake.

Still struggling to under? Alright, let me put it this way:
Christchurch earthquake released energy equivalent to 42.3 kilotons of TNT exploding.

The earthquake Japan experienced released energy equivalent to 336 megatons of TNT exploding.

TL;DR:

CHRISTCHURCH = 42300 tonnes of TNT exploding
JAPAN = 336000000 tonnes of TNT exploding

3 Tsar Bomba would roughly release the same ammount of energy as a 9.0 earthquake. So 5 of them would cause a bigger tsunami if detonated underwater. You wouldn't get the same tectonic shock, but the damage would probably be more devestating.

Tokyo wasn't really affected damage wise. There was no post disaster feeling. I'd imagine that if all the trains shut down for half a day, it'd be about the same.

Except for the fact a big disaster did happen. There were so many people just standing around in Shinjuku staring at the big screens of the news about 2 hours after the quake.

A ship carrying 100 people has been swept away by the tsunami off Japan's coast, the Kyodo news agency has reported, saying its whereabouts are still unknown.

Meanwhile authorities have told residents living near the Fukushima nuclear plant, hit by a fire earlier, to evacuate the area.

Authorities said peole living in a two kilometre radius of the No.2 reactor of the Fukushima No.1 plant should leave.

Tokyo Electric Power Co, which operates the plant, is still working to maintain water levels to avert the exposure of nuclear fuel rods, the Reuters news agency said.

This was back when the tsunami hit Indonesia a couple of years ago.

The German couple went out early and got back minutes before the tsunami hit the shore, and the girl's uncle and aunt pretty much saw the water level look weird from the boat, and the one who controlled the boat just slammed the throttle towards the sea in order to lower the wave effects on the boat.

The Germans died.

I'm too tired to explain it, but the only real danger is radiation if you're physically in the plant.

It's not gonna explode.

>>7076850
It's not the reactor that is the problem, but the SPENT fuel rods that sit in a huge pool and are constantly cooled by cool water. If the cooling of the spent rods stop, they will evaporate all the water and get so hot they will set the building on fire, spread radiation.

yes and no.

the rods are covered in a heavy water and coolant slurry that mediates the nuclear reaction and helps prevent overheating. Right now the fuel rods are overheated at least, and possibly near meltdown or at meltdown at worst (no ones inside). When the water hits them, the rods will either shatter (bad), vaporize (very bad) or explosively shatter (extremely bad). In addition the water will undergo radiolysis throwing off massive quantities of hydrogen and h2, which will have its own secondary nuclear reactions. This process will rapidly heat the core material, bringing it closer to melt down. Best case scenario? Giant clouds of radioactive steam drift over the surrounding area and the entire core is destroyed. Worst case scenario? The core enters meltdown with secondary reactions, breaches contaiment, radiolysis creates boric acid and other secondary chemicals from interactions with corium, clouds of radioactive steam, acid, molten particles of core, etc spread over the nearby area.

Regardless of which situation happens, ground water will be tained with at least heavy water and uranium, possibly plutonium and secondary heavy metals.

Shut up, you barely know anything. There's no report of the coolant having been boiled off, it's still there but just not beeing circulated. You can also moderate the nuclear reaction through control rods and there are absolutely no reports indicating that system has failed. There's no reports of the crew at the plants having been evacuated, in addition nuclear power plants have passive safety systems that don't require human intervention. If they fail to pump in coolants within two weeks, then there's cause to worry about nuclear rods overheating. But right now the experts they have interviewed aren't the least bit worried about some second Chernobyl.

I remember watching one of those helicopter camera feeds without thinking much, until a little detail struck my eye.

It looked pretty uninteresting at first, although something about it bugged me a bit. It wasn't until after a while of squinting that I noticed that the whole freaking building, propably at least a quarter of a soccer field in size, was uniformly slowly moving in the direction of the flow.

Someone on ATS is reporting from northern Japan- Hokkaido island...

All I can say is that it was a BIG one. Official reports here say that the first quake of 8.9 today lasted a whole 5 minutes! Have had big aftershocks ALL day long today. Here, our apartment was really shaking at about a 4.5 during the first quake. Felt like we were on a ship during a big storm or something. I couldn't even walk straight it was rocking so bad. In the years I have lived here, I have never experienced anything this big. Japanese news is now reporting that at least 200 are dead and many, many more missing, but I am suspecting at least 3,000-4,000 dead when this is all over with. Large sections of outskirts of Sendai city are now burning, according to live news shots taken by Japanese military flying overhead. Looks like it was carpet-bombed or something. Coastal cities everywhere along the east coast of Japan are flooded. Devastation is unbelievable. Will report more later if anyone is interested.

All I am hearing about is "Water near the fuel rods!!"

Now, a little nuclear physics here...
Water is a good neutron decelerator, which makes it a cheap and easy coolant for nuclear reactors.

Water acts to take fast neutrons (>0.1 MeV) and slows them causing them to become thermal neutrons (0.025 eV)

Water in the reactor is not a bad thing. This would effectively prevent a meltdown.

If water is entering the reactor and being leaked out with radioisotopes in it then yes that could be dangerous. But I think that a radiation leak would be small and not significant. It is unlikely that radiation levels leaked from the reactor would be much higher than the background radiation.

Also, to anyone who may think a Chernobyl style explosion may happen here, it cannot. Chernobyl was an outdated reactor design at the time of the disaster, reactor technology is much safer and those accidents can no longer happen.

there's only that many missing because it is just after the event and no one knows where a lot of people are. they might be alive and well just they're in the middle of bumfuck right now and unable to communicate with someone else to say they aren't missing. as time goes on the people who are alive will lessen the count as they report in to the authorities/others. those that are trapped/dead will remain missing til discovered.

"In Texas, where more than 300,000 refugees were located, local officials ran 20,000 criminal background checks on the refugees, as well as on the relief workers helping them and people who opened up their homes. The background checks found that 45% of the refugees had a criminal record of some nature, and that 22% had a violent criminal record. The number of homicides in Houston from September 2005 through February 22, 2006 went up by 23% relative to the same period a year before; 29 of the 170 murders involved displaced Louisianans as victims or suspects."

Indeed, it's as if people don't realize that there are safety mechanisms in place to be able to handle these types of situations. Japan =/= Tsjernobyl

[Anonymous No.]

The Japan Atomic Industry Forum (JAIF) issued a notice saying all reactors in the north-eastern part of Japan had shut down automatically. It noted that the Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency (Nisa) had said no damage to nuclear power plants had been reported as of 3.16pm. Japanese prime minister Naoto Kan made a statement on television in which he noted that there was no indication of any radioactive release.

Tokyo Electric Power Company (Tepco) has reported that emergency diesel generators started as expected at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant, but then stopped after one hour, leaving units 1, 2 and 3 with no power for important cooling functions. This led the company to notify the government of an 'emergency' situation, which allows local authorities to take additional precautionary measures. An evacuation has been ordered of people living within three kilometres, while engineers work to restore power.

At neighbouring Fukushima Daini, sufficient cooling water is being maintained by injection using the reactor core isolation cooling systems of units 1 to 4. At unit 1 an increase in reactor containment pressure has been noted, and "assumed to be caused by leakage of reactor coolant in the reactor containment" this led Tepco to notify government of another emergency status.

Nisa has noted that emissions from the exhaust stack of the these power plants show no increase in radioactivity.

Tohoku Electric Power Company has reported a fire in the non-nuclear turbine building of Onagawa 1. A minor fire burned in a non-nuclear service building of Tepco's Fukushima Daini 1 but this was extinguished within two hours.

There won't be a nuclear explosion (unless the situation changes drastically), and it's unlikely there will be a meltdown.

However with the (almost certain) coolant leaks it is currently possible that there is fissionable material leaking as well. Not all "nuclear disasters" come in the form of explosions; some are a lot more insidious, like radioactive groundwater for the next few decades...

Hearing you guys freak out about nuclear radiation and chernobyl hurts me on the inside because you guys have no idea how many failsafes there are in nuclear technology nowadays. Chernobyl happened because LOLRUSSIANENGINEERING. The concept of nuclear meltdown is one that is so unlikely in this current day and age that the only danger of nuclear reactors is finding a place to put the waste. It's thinking like this that keeps us from harvesting the most cost efficient energy solution and reaping its benefits because some idiots think of the Simpsons and Chernobyl when they think nuclear plant.

The cooling systems automatic failsafes are what's currently not working, bro.
The generators stopped working, it's on battery now and the water rises due to a broken dam.
If water rises, the cooling system will fail altogether and a leakage can happen. When a leak opens, you will have all different kinds of nasty stuff in your water, soil and air.

They don't want random unskilled fucks wandering around not helping. When the earthquake hit haiti, that's exactly what happened, hundreds of white people asking "HOW CAN I HELP ALSO U GOT ANY TOILET PAPER AND CLEAN WATER LOL?"

Japan won't have it *quite* so bad since it's not a complete shithole like Haiti was before the earthquake, but the only aid that Japan will possibly need is medics, doctors, nurses and people who are intimately familiar with emergency situations, as well as specialists in emergency engineering, chemical and hazardous wastes and things like that.

they've already got the general population wandering around, dazed, confused, and needing help. they don't need foreigners to come and do the same.

Aftershocks aren't that hard to understand.

"Like most earthquakes, the recent earthquake is expected to be followed by numerous aftershocks. Aftershocks are additional earthquakes that occur after the mainshock and in the same geographic area. Usually, aftershocks are smaller than the mainshock, but occasionally an aftershock may be strong enough to be felt widely throughout the area and may cause additional damage, particularly to structures already weakened in the mainshock. As a rule of thumb, aftershocks of magnitude 5 and larger are considered potentially damaging.

Aftershocks are most common immediately after the mainshock; their average number per day decreases rapidly as time passes. Aftershocks are most likely to be felt in the first few days after the mainshock, but may be felt weeks, months, or even years afterwards. In general, the larger the mainshock, the longer its aftershocks will be felt.

Aftershocks tend to occur near the mainshock, but the exact geographic pattern of the aftershocks varies from earthquake to earthquake and is not predictable. The larger the mainshock, the larger the area of aftershocks. While there is no "hard" cutoff distance beyond which an earthquake is totally incapable of triggering an aftershock, the vast majority of aftershocks are located close to the mainshock. As a rule of thumb, a magnitude 6 mainshock may have aftershocks up to 10 to 20 miles away, while a magnitude 7 mainshock may have aftershocks as far as 30 to 50 miles away."

Because the mainshock was so large, we are seeing abnormally large after shocks that are happening with greater frequency and further away from the mainshock.

The power cars are being prepared for connection, the WNA said, citing the Japanese ministry of economy, trade and industry. Other power modules are being flown in.
