the other reactors that were damaged, and running at the time of the quake, are in the process of being shut down completely and permanently. it takes days for the residual decay heat to be cooled down, and in the meantime the media is going OMG NUCLEAR ARMAGEDEON
The other 3 reactors have at least some melted fuel in them and possibly busted reactor containment vessels. They aren't exactly sure.

thats pretty ambiguous

do you have any specifics? i imagine not because you said they aren't exactly sure. there are quite a few things that can melt, and it depends on which part was melting as to what's going on, since the melting points for thsoe different things vary so much.

last i saw they were detecting some cesium, which means the the actual fuel has not begun melting yet.

edit: and the other 3 reactors have had 'at least some melted fuel in them' pretty muchs ince the start. this is not new news...

Latest from Kyodo:
http://english.kyodonews.jp/news/2011/03/78496.html

The containment vessel of the quake-hit No. 3 reactor of the Fukushima No. 1 nuclear power plant may have been damaged, Japan's top government spokesman said Wednesday, indicating that radioactive steam may be spreading outside.

The government's nuclear safety agency said the radiation level briefly reached 10 millisievert per hour at the plant's entrance at 10:40 a.m., but added that it was possibly due to radioactive substances emitted from the No. 2 reactor, as the government and Tokyo Electric Power Co. continued to scramble to address the ongoing nuclear crisis in the wake of Friday's devastating earthquake that hit Japan centering on its northeastern region.

The utility firm is also considering spraying boric acid by helicopter to prevent spent nuclear fuel rods at another troubled reactor, No. 4, from reaching criticality again, restarting a chain reaction.

Earlier Wednesday, a fire broke out again at the No. 4 reactor, which was already posing the risk of leaks of high-level radioactive materials, but flames were no longer visible about 30 minutes later, according to TEPCO.

The No. 3 reactor started to draw more attention after live TV footage of the plant showed white smoke coming out around 10 a.m.

Chief Cabinet Secretary Yukio Edano told a press conference that the smoke has been recognized from around 8:30 a.m. and said, ''There is a possibility that the No. 3 reactor's containment vessel is damaged.''

Edano, however, said that the government has no plans to expand the evacuation area of within 20 kilometers from the plant for now.

As for the No. 4 reactor, the utility said Tuesday that water in a pool storing the spent fuel rods may be boiling and that its level may have dropped, exposing the rods. The government ordered the firm to inject water into the pool ''as soon as possible to avert a major nuclear disaster.''

Due to high radiation levels at the reactor, workers have been unable to pour water into the troubled pool. Difficult conditions have led the utility to evacuate around 730 of the 800 workers from the site, according to TEPCO.

''The possibility of re-criticality is not zero,'' TEPCO said Wednesday as it announced the envisaged step to put the No. 4 reactor under control.

Unless the spent fuel rods are cooled down, they could suffer damage and emit radioactive substances.

An estimated 70 percent of the nuclear fuel rods have been damaged at the plant's No. 1 reactor and 33 percent at the No. 2 reactor, the firm also said. The cores of both reactors are believed to have partially melted with their cooling functions lost in the wake of Friday's magnitude 9.0 earthquake and tsunami.

At the No. 2 reactor, the pressure-suppression chamber connected to its containment vessel was damaged following an apparent hydrogen explosion early Tuesday.

An apparent hydrogen blast also occurred Tuesday morning at the No. 4 reactor, before a worker at the plant saw flames around 5:45 a.m. Wednesday on the fourth floor of the building housing the reactor, believed to be the same spot with the blast that caused a fire the day before. The reactor had been halted for regular checks from before the quake.

why don't we just have kamikazes go in there on foot carrying a big water hose.

My friend told me he had seen a few houses floating by his carrier, I thought he was just joking...

I***8217;m getting God-damn sick of this ****ing radiation bull****.
Every time I turn around another reactor is about to blow.
DID YOU FORGET TO COOL DOWN #4 WHILE YOU WERE WORKING ON THE OTHERS?
GET YOUR **** TOGETHER.

The EXIF data had some interesting info:

PACIFIC OCEAN (March 13, 2011) -- A Japanese home is visually inspected by a helicopter-based Search and Rescue (SAR) team from the aircraft carrier USS Ronald Reagan (CVN 76), as the home floats adrift miles from the coast of Japan two days after the 9.0 magnitude earthquake and subsequent tsunami. Ships and aircraft from the Ronald Reagan Strike Group are currently rendering humanitarian assistance off the coast of Japan.

No, the news should be reported accurately and then everyone is fine.

The problem is when they skip over the accurate news and instead report on the hypothetical asteroid coming into hit the reactors and if Al'Queda is going to try to steal nukes from the power plant while the workers are away and **** like that.
