Decommissioning Fukushima: The Ongoing Battle against Radiation
At the accident site of the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant, the decommissioning of reactors involving the removal of nuclear fuel from 3 crippled reactors seems unending. Some estimates say it will take over 40 years until all the work is complete. Nuclear debris still continues to release fatal amounts of radiation, making close investigation impossible. Therefore, alternative inspection methods using cutting-edge technology are ongoing, including small remotely-operated robots and cosmic-ray, sub-atomic technology to image and detect debris inside the reactor. Can humans safely control nuclear power? Decommissioning Fukushima is a "front line" record of the accident that attempts to answer this question.
