Progress Pond

Serious Question

I’ve been trying to get a handle on what the worst-case scenario is with the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant, but it’s hard to get a straight answer. I found a fairly decent resource in this Mother Jones article. It says the worst-case would render uninhabitable an area of Japan the size of several northeastern states. That’s kind of vague, though. And I’d like to see what the potential is for fallout reaching the United States, even if it is only Guam or the Aleutian Islands of Alaska. Anybody have good estimates?
