iamlegend Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 (edited) seen all these daaaaaaaaaaamn boi! when the tsunami hit japan all these butes left to rot http://juiceboxforyou.com/2015/01/the-abandoned-cars-of-fukushima/ Edited January 28, 2015 by iamlegend Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gainzy Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Looks crazy that! I wonder what it will look like in 100 years or so they might decontaminate it, looks a lonely place all stood still Quote Link to post Share on other sites
funny onion Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 (edited) That Pulsar looks mint! Sad though Edited January 28, 2015 by funny onion Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cammy R Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Intrsting to see what happens if we all just left Quote Link to post Share on other sites
akyakapotter Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Are these not in the radiation zone from the reactor melting down. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
iamlegend Posted January 28, 2015 Author Share Posted January 28, 2015 Are these not in the radiation zone from the reactor melting down. that would be sense tbh I was wondering why they have not been moved... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bluebear Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 That's exactly it. The metal will have become radioactive. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kavan-k Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Fuck that's crazy, pity there isn't a way to get rid of that radioactive stuff! Just imagining what is left in garages, Unreal! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

funny onion Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 The contamination was nowhere near the scale of the Chernobyl disaster, even though both were class 7 nuclear incidents. Reportedly nobody has died directly as a result of radiation poisoning from Fukushima, but the plant and surrounding areas will be behind wire for hundreds if not thousands of years. One of hardest things to stop is the spread of the radioactive material via weather, leakage, wildlife etc. Most clean up efforts fail as a result of these factors. Studied nuclear physics in great depth at university and it I find it totally fascinating! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GlanzaJim Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 What is radiation? Or become radioactive? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Corey Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 (edited) Anyone else kinda surprised to see an Opel Astra in Japan lol. Edited January 29, 2015 by Corey Quote Link to post Share on other sites
funny onion Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 What is radiation? Or become radioactive? Have a quick look on google or wikipedia as they will no doubt explain it better, Basically if something is radioactive it emites radiation. The radiation can be in the form of waves (such as x-rays, gamma rays etc). or very small sub atomic particles (electrons, nuetrons, protons etc). More weird an wonderful things can be emitted but for the majority its either a wave, particle or both. When something is radioactive and emits radiation it is called nuclear decay. Things are radioactive when the element is unstable- it has too many particles in the atom nucleus or its energy state is too high. In order to reduce the number of particles in the nucleus, or to reduce the energy level, it emits particles/waves as radiation. Other things in the area can become radioactive because the radiation interferes with the surroundings. In terms of people and living things its dangerous because it can interfere, alter and damage our dna and cells. This can cause mutations and hence cancer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

GlanzaJim Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Well explained. So them cars cant be touched in either way Quote Link to post Share on other sites
funny onion Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Well explained. So them cars cant be touched in either way Most things are radioactive to some extent. An elements radioactiveness if you like is usually given by stating it's halflife. this is the time it takes for the initial radiation level of an element to fall to half of the original value. This means that it is an exponential relationship and therefore never actually reaches a zero value, it just gets smaller and smaller and smaller. These cars (and everything else in the area) will have high radioactivity levels but they will fall very quickly to start with. but they will stay a lot higher than normal for hundreds/thousands of years. They health risks aren't that great in the surrounding areas like in these photos. i think the risks are more for children and teenagers. but the government would be hung drawn and quartered if they allowed people back and then there were a load of people reported with cancer due to the radiation.
