I am glad the MSM is all over this one

Not sure if this has already been posted or not I could not find it

I thought ATS upgraded it to level 7 on March 12th?

The image in the link you supply still shows a level 5.

Where does it say it's a level 7?

We all knew that was coming last week + ... I feel sorry for the poor Japanese public being kept in the dark by their government. And its only a matter time most of the northern hemispere will be polluted and glowing. Stupid humans again playing with toys they shouldnt be. Earth is being destoyed !!

Go to tp and click on situation update its got some good info.......
Im goin back there again regularly.....
Doesnt anyone think the safe zone which is set at 20Km should be widened to forty?
There is a good chance that if the reactors are cooking off, maybe airborne particles could be given off explosively and massively in a short time period.
Do the peopl have enough running room for a head start if a massive plume is given off?
I dont think so......Thos situation of those people close to the reactor even at 20K distance, may be at risk of a traumatic blast of radiation of even short but strong duration.
So muc material stored there,anybody have any guesses as to possible scenarios based on some knowledge of the variables?
Where the hell did that redneck go?

here, from the OP's post Cause of event: Malfunctioning at the cooling system (Susp. Level of INES 7- Chernobyl like - accident) Log date [UTC]: 11/03/2011 - 12:38:52 never mind someone be me to it, to slow at typing.

YEAH MY BAD GUYS LOOKS LIKE I JUMPED THE GUN
SORRY

It is a level 7 and looks likely far worse than Chernobly Russia

How does ATS grade nuke disasters on what basis are their scientists here I agree it is a 7 or a 10 ?

It is in no way as bad as Chernobyl yet and I think unless all four reactors melted down it won't be. Chernobyl was a serious issue mainly because of the graphite in the reactor...it was very easy for that to catch flame. It may reach level 7 but Chernobyl is a beast of it's own. If it does get to that level, we may see forced relocation of a vast amount of the Japanese population overseas.

well here is a nuclear scientist explaining how bad it really is right now he just made this video 2 hrs ago after he has seen pics of the reactors

hmm way back on the 24th this was reported

Austrian researchers have used a worldwide network of radiation detectors – designed to spot clandestine nuclear bomb tests – to show that iodine-131 is being released at daily levels 73 per cent of those seen after the 1986 disaster. The daily amount of caesium-137 released from Fukushima Daiichi is around 60 per cent of the amount released from Chernobyl.

source

in case you didn't catch that...that is 73% percent of Iodine-131 that Chernobyl put out..and that was about 8 days ago..and guess what...it has still been putting it out..

and we still have spent fuel pools that are most likely on fire...and if that is true....it will far pass Chernobyl

That was under "cause" and is merely stating it is a similar event to the Chernobly level 7 event.
NOT that Japan is level 7...
Though IMO it should be at least a 6..

Yeah a couple of posts up I said i jumped the gun on this thread
sorry

a level 7 is a level 7 fukushima.greenaction-japan.org... from the link

A new analysis prepared for Greenpeace Germany by nuclear safety expert Dr Helmut Hirsch shows that by March 23 2011, Japan’s nuclear crisis has already released enough radioactivity to be ranked at Level 7 on the International Nuclear Event Scale (INES). This is the scale’s highest level, and equal to the 1986 Chernobyl nuclear disaster.

and who is Dr Helmut Hirsch www.dw-world.de... from the link

Dr. Helmut Hirsch is a physicist and scientific consultant for nuclear safety for a number of organizations including the Austrian federal government and the environment ministry.

does this say what needs to to said.

Does the Chernobyl vs. Fukushima Cage Match really make any difference at all? This isn't a contest and, if it is, I'd really like to just go ahead and hand in my ticket and leave the venue now.

The chemicals being dealt with are different, the mechanisms completely different, the root causes completely different, and (here's the huge one in my mind) the local and regional population densities are incomparable to each other. Another major concern for me in this bizarre and never ending comparison battle is the effect of hindsight as compared to the effect of real time information concealment. We have the advantage (poor word to use here) of looking at 25 years of effects from Chernobyl and we really haven't got one damn piece of information surrounding the Fukushima disaster that isn't questionable, contestable, or flat out suspected of being false and misleading. The numeric scale is a crock... With any disaster you've basically got 4 levels:
This is an inconvenience, but easily fixed.
This is beyond an inconvenience, changes people's lives, but we can rebuild.
Holy crap, people are dying and we really need to fix this now.
Run for the hills, hope of repairing the effects of this disaster is lost.

We passed "Holy Crap" when they began to discuss pouring a sarcophagus over the top of the reactor and sealing it off. A little discussed factor of Chernobyl that the media seems to not know about is that the sarcophagus poured over it is disintegrating and currently expected to require major work in the near future. Under it is a lake of lava-like melted fuel. Surrounding it is an alomst 20 mile radius permanently closed zone and around that an up-to 100 mile away variable permanent control zone inside of which people are not allowed to live and must recieve special permits to enter into. They are not allowed to remove anything (particularly salvage materials and food animals or plants) from within this control zone and are required to wear respirators. If they ended up doing the same at Fukushima, that would likely have a significant impact on Tokyo.
