You only have to go 3:57 into the video to see Al Jazeera's usual "stunning" display of scientific know-how. Pro tip: Fusion=/=Fission.

they already tried that theory back in 86 and well the heat from the fuel cooked the robots so humans have to do the job

It's simple... All they have to do, is pick up japan and put it in a safer and less earthquake prone area ... ! Then they should try to stay away from Water and Nuclear Plants ... ... ...

@UsirAccessDenied The risks WERE weighed and they're getting exactly the results they were hoping for.
Nuclear power plant location next to the ocean in a high earthquake and tsunami prone area, yet the designers/planners decided to not place the diesel engines high off the ground? This is not a failure of nuclear power but rather of basic design practices and precautions. A plant like this needs to have multiple redundant generators placed at least 60 ft off the ground, copious diesel reserves, reactor pump redundancy and pumps that are fully protected from the elements (flooding etc.).

@crocfme or at least, if you're going to build a nuclear power plant, don't build it in the Ring of Fire and don't put it in San Francisco.
