Fukushima: 5 years later.


Recommended Posts

Figured I'd drop in to share this.

Basically, the guy snuck in, and took photographs of the abandoned town, but the Fukushima disaster caused multiple towns to be abandoned. Looks like something out of a post apocalyptic film.

 

Since the closest thing to Fukushima was Chernobyl, and the city of Pripyat is still said to be unsafe and uninhabitable, 30 years later....well......yeah.

I thought Chernobyl is safe in terms of radiation, but just really spooky because it's very quiet

I hope that you are joking. I really do.

 

If you weren't... Please do a little research on atomic physics, as well as how long it would take for all those radioactive particles to decay.

It will never be inhabitable again.

 

Ever.

Jord is correct. By the time the exclusion zone is habitatable again, who knows if humans will still be around.

 

That being said, a few have resettled, despite the obvious danger.

Hell, you don't even need to go that far. A Google search on whether it would be habitable again would give the answer. That's how I learned that. Didn't do any psyhics research at all.

But alas, some people like to spew stuff out without even a little research. Oh well.

 

Damn dude chill. Nuclear science isn't exactly common knowledge.

The pictures feel like a step back in time. It's basically a time capsule lodged into Japan.

Easy now, people. If someone didn't know, they didn't know. There is NO need to go down on someone for not knowing.

That is one way to put it, and a damn interesting one at that.

Eh, fair point. Probably should not have said that. Still, there's a reason why Pripyat is still a decaying ghost town.

 

Speaking of Pripyat, that's an even bigger time capsule, since it's been left untouched since the 1986 disaster. Both are creepy af, but since you looked at the pictures in the link in the OP, you probably saw all the stuff that was left behind in stores, such as magazines. That adds to the eeriness, imo.
