A robot at the damaged Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant has for the first time identified exactly where highly radioactive water is leaking from a reactor at the lower part of the No.1 reactor’s containment vessel.
A camera on the robot captured images of water leaking from 2 holes in the containment vessel.
TEPCO engineers say one of the leaks looks as if tap water is gushing out. Radiation levels in the area were extremely high at 0.9 to 1.8 sieverts an hour. Engineers suspect that damage to containment vessels at the No. 2 and 3 reactors is also causing similar leaks.
