Oh, I'm sure that that is a complete and total coincidence. All people saying that HAARP can make earthquakes are crazy and don't know what they're talking about. Just listen to the popular members with a high WATS index who are resident experts on the subject, since they know what they're talking about.

OMG, I just thought of something.

What direction is this camera facing relative to the Nuclear Plants? Is it feasible that if there was a nuclear explosion that 1) it could be seen from this vantage point and 2) would it only be a flash of light like this?

Please someone tell me that I am crazy that this could NOT be a nuclear explosion...all flaming welcome in this instance.



How are you gonna get a nuclear explosion from a nuclear powerplant? They are two different animals.

The flash is clearly electrical. Anyone who has ever seen a transformer blow wouldn't give this flash a second thought.

That's the first thing I thought too. It was huge whatever it was! I'm going to try to find out what it was and if I do I'll post it here.

I'm going to take a wild guess that the "light" was transformers and/or a substation going down- hence the power outage shortly after....

ETA: Yes, kite beat me to it!

There cannot be any type of explosion then? Fine by me...I don't claim to be a scientist.

Blue flash during the earthquake in Miyagi prefecture, any thoughts on what it could be? Start at 0:12

No im sorry, I don't buy that. yesterday I felt something drain from me, the same way it happened on march 11. So no, i don't buy it. There is also a HAARP facility close to where i live as well. My mom felt it too. So I know it wasn't just me.

No, Nuclear plants don't do that..
They simply melt down.

The rods are surrounded in boron to prevent a chain reaction.(this absorbs the neutrons)

But if this shaking broke the square casings holding the rods, then we could have a melt down. nothing like Chernobyl though.

But these rod racks SHOULD be under 30 ft of water, but they are exposed currently. (reason for the steam coming out--the second they spray water on them, it evaporates. That's why they are now adding liquid nitrogen.)

If the leak is closed still, and they can fill/cover the rods, then we're all good. if not, they will probably need to bury the reactor in concrete/boron mix. (i.e. a sarcophagus like Chernobyl).

Terrible news.

I hope another tsunami doesn't hit, no reports yet.

If one hit the damaged nuke reactors, wouldn't that push all the radioactive material inland?

No there can be an explosion just not the kind you were thinking of as in like an nuke bomb. I am far from a scientist myself but have learned quite a deal here through the last month or so. Sorry didn't mean to offend.

They just said on CNN that 2 NEW nuclear plants are being watched because they lost power....and they are saying it's just a precaution....nothing to worry about...

Thanks.

Its probably just a transformer blowing....

Feel so sorry for these poor people. Sky news say the light is an earth quake light. I dont have a clue myself though

What's an "earthquake light"?

Yeah, it can 'explode', and one or two DID. It was a hydrogen explosion. The reactors lost power - no more water being add -- rods burn off the water into hydrogen. Gas pressure built, and blew the top off the reactors.

No offense taken! I was hoping to be wrong.

Many thanks for the insight.

Thank you for this information. Very helpful, indeed.

They should have buried it weeks ago....but that is a topic for another discussion...
