Gov’t Experts: “Astounding” Levels Of Radiation Measured In U.S. From Fukushima — Around 500,000 Times Our Normal Levels… “We Have Never Ever Seen Anything Even Close To That, Concentrations Went Up And Up And Up Every Day… Amazing To See This 7,000 km Away” — “A Matter Of Life & Death” (VIDEO)
Enenews.com has been reporting continuously on the aftermath since the Fukushima nightmare had begun, and it’s been one horror after another.
Government experts were totally taken by surprise at how quickly, and just how hard we were hit with Fukushima radiation here in the United States, with radiation readings off the charts. This just one day after the Fukushima explosion and massive plume release, and this is 7,000 kilometers away from the event and it actually persisted for weeks at very measurable levels.
According to Enews: Harry Miley, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory in Washington, Mar 7, 2014 (emphasis added): “We’re surrounded by souvenirs of scientific achievement here in the National Security Building Showcase lobby. Each one of these items tells a story of scientists working quietly on projects of societal impact. This yellow thing you see behind me is an aerosol sample… It was taken here a few days after the earthquake, tsunami, and nuclear disasters in Japan, and contains radioactivity that allowed us to determine the nature [and] magnitude of the release, but most importantly that there will be no human health impacts in North America… The Fukushima nuclear disaster… was not something we expected.
We normally work on things of societal impact invisibly… But when the disaster occurred, the things we were doing suddenly became of national importance. You could hardly imagine anything more important. In fact, it was a matter of life and death.” >> Watch the video here
A colleague of Miley’s at PNNL, Ted Bowyer, discussed the air samples at a CTBTO meeting:
- 0:30 in – “I agree with everything that previous speakers said, especially the aspect that more work is necessary… We have a lot of work to do… We have a lot of questions that we need to answer. There are a lot of people working on it. I also really thought it was very valuable to have this email exchange with… interested parties about events as they were unfolding in Japan. The accident as everyone knows was a terrible tragedy.”
