- The most severely damaged reactors are only secure to the level of a magnitude 7.9 earthquake.
There is a high probability that, if a quake of magnitude 7.9 or above, or some other serious event, strikes Fukushima, a “criticality” will occur, and an explosion, or a series of explosions – a chain reaction, engulfing reactors one to four – that would spew this contamination over much broader areas of helpless populations.
The jet stream will transport airborne contamination to the U.S. and other parts of world.
