Up to about 2,200 degrees in terms of the heat it can produce. it melts at about 2,100 degrees. sao the truth is, if you can't keep enough water in there to keep it cooled down, it will start melting on itself. what jim was talking about was the different chambers here. this is the reactor part itself. the concern earlier this evening, all the worry was, that not only did they have a problem here, but this, the outer container, which is the last line of defense when they had that explosion this morning, they had a drop in pressure inside here, which would suggest that there was some kind of ve...

Produce. but it melts at about 2,100 degrees. so the truth is if you can't keep enough water in there to help cool it down, it will start melting on itself. what jim was talking about was the different chambers here. this is the reactor part itself. the concern earlier this evening, all the worry was that not only did they have a problem here, but this, the outer container, which is the last line of defense, when they had that explosion this morning, they had a drop in pressure inside here, which would suggest that there was some kind of venting going on. and they had a rise outside here in th...

Some point in the past. you get a sense of how big the actual reactor is. here it is copping up, that's the reactor part. and you see the workers. you get a sense of the scale. here's what's interesting, this has been a series of issues from the beginning. they had an electrical failure and the pumps that cool the reactor down stopped running. it's not clear why, maybe the tsunami did this. then another set of battery pumps kicked in, they worked for a while and then they went dead. and then they started pumping sea water into this area to try to solve the problem. anderson, i want to go back ...
