On July 17 and 18 steam was observed rising from Fukushima Daiichi Reactor 3, raising concerns that the damaged reactor’s nuclear reaction had started again. If this has happened, another large release of radioactive material from the planet is probable. Then, yesterday, Tokyo Electric Power admitted that radioactive groundwater had leaked from the plant into the sea. Levels of cancer-causing cesium 134 have increased by 110 percent in the past few days. So far, Tepco has not been able to explain this increase, but it would be consistent with new nuclear reactions taking place in the reactor’s core.

Nobody is on site, buildings are locked and the power is turned off. HAARP’s official website is no longer available. In the next two months, a government contractor will be assigned to the facility, but the reason for this remains unclear. Either it will be to dismantle it, or to run it for the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) which has a program scheduled to run on it in the fall.
