That explosion looks really bad. The expert on the video says that he doesn't think any radioactive material is involved in that blast but it could have damaged the containment. If so they will see massive rises in radiation levels very quickly.

Fucked up Journo mumbo jumbo if you ask me.
So an 8.9 can be 8000x 'stronger' than a 6.6?
If you work in 1000's of a 1 point in a 1 in 10 point perhaps 
Thinking about it not even then ffs
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-pacific-12709598
It's still 8000x stronger, and its on every site I read
Isnt it all to do with how much energy is released by the plates colliding?

if you mix certain nuclear fuel with water is creates hydrogen, bet thats what caused the explosion. even if there is a meltdown modern plants are meant to contain it dont see how it didnt auto shutdown at the time of the quake though like the rest?
