Daiichi nuclear power station, Okuma, Fukushima Prefecture, Japan. This is the site of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster. At centre, reactor building 3 is encased in concrete. The surrounding blue storage tanks hold radioactive water. The disaster, on 11th March 2011, was triggered after a magnitude 9.0 earthquake occurred 130 kilometres off the east coast of Japan causing a devastating tsunami. The tsunami damaged the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power station, leading to the meltdown of three of the nuclear reactors and a leak of radioactive material. It was one of the world's largest nuclear incidents since the Chernobyl disaster of April 1986. Photographed in March 2020.
