Disasters can be cleaned up.
Naohiro Masuda, TEPCO Chief of Decommissioning at Fukushima Diiachi Nuclear Power Plant, finally publicly "officially" announced that
600 tons of hot molten core, or corium, is missing (Fukushima Nuclear Plant Operator Says 600 Tons of Melted Fuels is Missing,
Epoch Times, May 24, 2016).
Now what?
According to Gregory Jaczko, former head of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), it is not likely the fuel will ever be recovered: "Nobody really knows where the fuel is at this point, and this fuel is still very radioactive and will be for a long time."
A big part of the problem is that nobody has experience with a Fukushima-type meltdown, which now appears to be 100% meltdown, possibly burrowed into the ground, but nobody really knows for sure.
What's next is like a trip into The Twilight Zone.
"The absolutely uncontrollable fission of the melted nuclear fuel assemblies continue somewhere under the remains of the station. 'It's important to find it as soon as possible,' acknowledged Masuda, admitting that Japan does not yet possess the technology to extract the melted uranium fuel," (600 Tons of Melted Radioactive Fukushima Fuel Still Not Found, Clean-Up Chief Reveals, RT, May 24, 2016).
