  • @radioguy I have been following globalincident all day and every couple of hours grabbed the data. No doubt the quakes are playing ring around the fire!

    Oh, btw. I loaded up a machine I decommissioned in 2007 looking for some old charts, and this was the desktop, from the Cassini Mission. Dinner time.

  • If you look at the blowup, the little dot at 10 o'clock in the rings is earth.

  • re Tokai - the profs in Japan are saying that that possibility has decreased since the big quake & its now the east coast of Japan that is most at risk. I've been waiting for a quake in the sea east of Chiba - near where 2 plates meet

  • @dean Hadn't heard from George.
    by Jim Carver 4/16/2011 2:38:00 AM

  • Something to note, when looking at quakes on the globalincidentmap website... It only shows 4+ quakes globally, and smaller quakes in the US (uses USGS). So when you're looking for patterns, you're only looking at 4+ quakes.

  • Edano where are you and Bobby1?
    by carabnr 4/16/2011 2:41:54 AM

  • @carabnr I'm in the US, Maryland
    by Bobby1 4/16/2011 2:42:28 AM

  • @dean Am I understanding things right? They report in Kyodo that the melted core is in granulated form. So a tremors can shake it up? Or isit more stuck together? If you know, that is.
    by marie rich 4/16/2011 2:42:29 AM

  • oh I thought you were there in Japan....Space
    by carabnr 4/16/2011 2:43:23 AM

  • @carabnr : i'm cozy and far away.
    by Edano 4/16/2011 2:43:27 AM

  • marie.. in my opinion.. they are theorizing the fuel is in that granulated form.. they don't know for 100 percent certain..
    by dean 4/16/2011 2:43:31 AM

  • ah... okay. Well then, looks like it was a 5.8 earthquake.usgs.gov

  • New teppy cam shot, still smoke. Looks to be roughly the area around #4 pointscope01.jp

    by Nancy via Pointscope01.jp 4/16/2011 3:01:47 AM

  • pointscope01.jp Now no steam I think it was water spray

    by NHK Listener via Pointscope01.jp 4/16/2011 3:02:23 AM

  • @NHK The steam or water spray does seem to have disappeared, but what are the black/grey areas there now? And what do you think of what we saw a few hours ago, when it looked like smoke mixed with the steam/water spray?
    by NervousinNJ 4/16/2011 3:05:54 AM

  • @NervousinNJ I think those are pump truck arms.. They have been there for a few days... pointscope01.jp
    by NHK Listener 4/16/2011 3:08:21 AM

  • So do you think that what we thought was smoke earlier was just the pump arms showing through the steam/water spray?
    by NervousinNJ 4/16/2011 3:14:02 AM

  • @NervousinNJ I don't think there was any smoke. You can see the Black thing (pump arm) in most of the pictures going back to the 7th.
    by NHK Listener 4/16/2011 3:20:41 AM

  • @Bobby and then @NHK That was going to be my next ques. Then what about the smoky haze going on in the background? Doesn't look like fog, as the foreground is pretty clear??
