Japan Nuclear Reactors- Update

The nuclear plant in Japan is being taken care of. Engineers have connected a cable through which they will supply part of the Fukishima Nuclear Plant with power, enabling the cooling system to do what it should have weeks ago. Traces of the radioactive iodine were found in food products around the plant, and even small traces were found in the tap water in Tokyo. In my last post, I mentioned the two explosions that had happened prior to that post. Since then, theres been a third blast at Reactor #4. This explosion leaked radiation into the atmosphere. I hope that Japanese engineers can get the plant under control so no more people get hurt.
