      "In the afternoon some external power recovery"
      10:30 on May 17, 3 twitter tweet (NHK leaves the site and click)

      Loss of cooling, the nuclear power plant Fukushima Daiichi has fallen into a serious situation, in order to restore the function to cool the reactor, they went to work pulling power lines to power plants TEPCO Monday afternoon I want to restore some of the external power supply as well.

      It is clear at a news conference for Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency Ministry of Economy. The primary Fukushima Daiichi, in addition to power outages caused by the earthquake, and 送Renaku electricity is faulty generator emergency in the tsunami, such as losing the ability to cool the reactor in the No. 3 from No. 1, not in deep water Masu. TEPCO is promoting measures such as the water into the reactor using a pump trucks, is limited in its ability to recover the situation is far from cooling. As a cool feature and restore the reactor Therefore, TEPCO, they do work on site to pull from the power lines high voltage transmission lines pass near the nuclear power plant, an external power restored on Tuesday afternoon some 17 I want to. And we aim to recover the original cooling system using sea water to cool reactors. However, because the pump has worn the sea by the tsunami, in that it requires repair, first, to consider is that by connecting the pump to move the temporary system.

        Even the riot police water cannon from noon
        7:12 17 minutes 3 twitter tweet in (click on the site leaves the NHK)

        Nuclear power plant first Fukushima, if state can not cooling pool storage of spent fuel of Unit 4 and the No. 3, because there is a leak outside the radioactive material to remain still, the government headquarters are urged to do cool SDF and police, 17 am Three of the Unit made a helicopter dropping water over the SDF. As early as around noon is also expected to discharge high-pressure water cannons from the ground by riot police.

        In Unit 3 of Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station, the state and can not keep a cool pool of spent fuel has been found that the evaporation of water. The No. 4 well encountered a series of fires until the 16th, and found that the rising temperature of the pool for storage was put nuclear fuel, if you follow this condition is both No. 4 and the No. 3, is that there is a leak of radioactive material outside the fuel melts. The government's task force for this purpose, was asked to work on cooling the SDF and police. Will be working towards the cooling is done in favor of large buildings damaged Unit 3, the SDF ground troops in the first team for the helicopter to drop water from helicopters we headed to the UH60 helicopter, measure radiation dose over the "monitoring" after conducting a CH47 began before 10 am with a helicopter dropping water. 7.5 per unit is equipped with two helicopters that can drop tons of water containers, 17 in the morning from the sea to the nearby sea water Kumi上Ge made a drop to No. 3 on four occasions together. Ministry of Defense, whether to work by helicopter water bombing will continue looking at trying to judge the situation. Meanwhile, the Unit 3 was scheduled to work in Unit 4 cooling, the first held by riot police, "high pressure water cannons," as early as around noon due to drainage work is also supposed to begin are gearing up in riot. Ue riot at a safe distance while taking a measured dose wearing protective clothing borrowed from the SDF is that working in cooperation with the fire truck hit the SDF. For Unit 4 will be to study how to do it again or drainage work.

          Sawa Kita Defense Minister, in a press conference for the cooling of the rocket hit the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station 3, about helicopters were dropping water on the SDF, based on the current situation, to do the 17 cooling to show that you decide that day limit. The Minister Sawa Kita is shown in the afternoon to continue the policy we work cooling water discharge from the ground.

          In this context, the Minister of Defense Sawa Kita is "48 minutes at 9:00 am today for the Unit 3 cooling Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station, the SDF troops in helicopters, four times, was carried out of the water drop. Criteria are The amount of radiation was measured at 4.13 mSv per hour, altitude 1000 feet, 300 feet in altitude because it was found that 87.7 mSv was. Yesterday was scheduled to conduct radiation withdrew due to a high concentration. But today, amid the indecision of the ground water discharge, the government's disaster headquarters, was considered cool to do that is limited today, "he said. He added, Minister of the Sawa Kita, "From now on, the ground water cannon by police water cannon vehicle, then the SDF plans to discharge. In addition, the SDF is a pumper truck during the transportation of U.S. forces," he said, the ground in the afternoon. policy showed the work to continue to do discharge from the cooling. In addition, the Minister Sawa Kita said, "because they are water No. 3 was confirmed. Cooling of spent nuclear fuel is expected, will look at the data coming out, you want to determine the results of the drop of water in this "he said.

              Wed dose unchanged before and after the bombing
              12 hours 38 minutes March 17

              Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant continues to be a serious loss of cooling conditions, work has been done into the water spent fuel pool at Unit 3 of the SDF from the air using helicopters. According to TEPCO, the amount of radiation measured by the primary tumor site, and before and after the bombing in a big change but for now it's not.

              In the No. 3 and No. 4 of Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station, the state and can not keep a cool pool of spent fuel has been found that the temperature is raised to the water evaporates. If you continue in this state, as there is a leak outside the radioactive material to melt the fuel, the task force, the government asked the police and the SDF can do water into the pool from the ground and sky for. Of these, work water into spent fuel pool at Unit 3 of the SDF from the air using a helicopter, took place four times during 48 minutes at 1:10 am 9 am 17 min. In response, the office held a press conference Hukuzima TEPCO much radiation was measured in the main building one hundred meters away from the office No. 3, 3782 microsievert 40 minutes per hour before the bombing at 9:00 am The numbers were even minutes after the 20:10 am end dropped, and 3752 microsievert per hour, with no clear major changes so far.

                If the volume of water in the "bomb" hit the pool perfectly, was it sufficient volume to immerse the rods? It appears not, but perhaps with repeated tries they can "fill the pool."

                  According to TEPCO, the 17th, we examined the status of the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station of the SDF from the helicopter, the spent fuel pool at Unit 4 is a state that is confirmed there is water. The amount of water from inside is still not confirmed that. In addition to the Unit 3 steam that was 立Chikome work from the water into a helicopter over 16 days of the SDF is that it has decided to start No. 3.

                    They are bringing in the fire trucks with the water cannons now. The problem with just dropping water onto the pools is that, I believe, the water needs to be circulating to keep the rods cool. Maybe if they get the power on they can fix the plumbing/mechanics so they can circulate the water that they are pumping in.

                    How many people are enduring the high radiation to bring in the water and repair the plumbing/mechanics?

                      They're the modern Kamakazi pilots.

                      Perhaps at some point they can use robots to do some of the work, or at least testing/sampling.

                              My comment wasn't meant to be derogatory, but rather an example of devotion to country. Those WW II pilots were heroes for their country.

                              Sorry if anyone was offended.

                                U.S. to send drones over damaged nuke plant

                                (CBS/AP) They've been used in the drug war in Mexico and to help fight the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Now, unmanned U.S. spy planes will be used over Japan to take a closer, safer look at the damaged Fukushima nuclear complex.


                                CBS News' Harry Smith reports that the drones are equipped with infrared cameras, which will allow officials to look inside the complex and find the hot spots where there might be the most trouble.


                                Conditions at the plant deteriorated Wednesday, with surging radiation forcing Japan to order workers to temporarily withdraw from the plant. In response, the U.S. recommended citizens within 50 miles of it evacuate.

                                Airmen have been flying search and rescue missions and operating Global Hawk drones and U-2 reconnaissance planes to help the Japanese assess damage from the disasters......
