state. it now seems that tepco is working hard to make fukushima safe.and reinforced working areas, sealed the soil in concrete and reduced radiation levels. in our a—hour visit, we received the radiation dose equivalent to four dental x—rays. but there is such a long way to go. decommissioning the site could take a0 yea rs and it may cost 8 trillion yen. the human cost is more difficult to quantify. the exclusion zone has left many people homeless, unable to stop nature from reclaiming their post—apocalyptic ghost towns. they can't go back until the radioactive fuel is recovered. those little robots have a lot riding on their tiny backs. they say in japan, you are never more than six feet away from a robot. 0k, actually, they don't say that but it does feel like it. and behind many ofjapan‘s most iconic creations are two robot visionaries. hello, everybody. this is professor hiroshi ishiguro. and this... hello, everybody. i am a geminoid. i am a copy of professor hiroshi ishiguro. geminoid hill is a robot created by professor ishiguro in his own likenes

following the 2011 fukushima disaster shares of tepco fell nearly 4% tokyo electric down less than 1% samsung having its best day in more than a year the tech giant is expected to announce record profits for its memory chips in the third quarter. samsung, gaining nearly 3% on the day. keep an eye, if you will, please -- or if you want to, or not -- i'm not ordering you to do it, but shares of sky and twenty-first century fox are both active -- or could be active today the u.k. competition authority announcing it will examine the proposed deal between the two companies. rupert murdoch's twenty-first century fox is looking to acquire sky for roughly $15.4 billion, and it's been all tried before, and then roger ales, and all kind of nuances to whether this -- what happens here.

ones and that's that's the new plan and that's what we're looking at is our meanwhile over in japan tepco the company that owns the fukushima reactors. according news reports that they want to dump almost eight hundred thousand tons of riley radioactive water into the pacific ocean what's the story here well. you know the the nuclear reaction. it creates all kinds of radioactive isotopes this accident created tremendous amounts of you know of probably one hundred twenty different radioactive isotopes in the fissioning process but one key one has been tritium which is radioactive hydrogen and the industry in talking about you know what they're going to do with all this radioactive water you can't filter tritium out because it is radioactive hydrogen in its treated water so they're talking about either dumping it into the ocean

the tokyo electric power company, tepco, is keen to show us — and, i guess, the world — just how muchdioactive debris has now been removed and how it is now possible to walk around most of the site without too much protective clothing. but to really understand the challenge the robots face in finding and removing the melted radioactive fuel, we do need to suit up. we are going inside unit five, which is identical to the units which were wrecked by the explosions. as you can imagine, it's really hot inside these suits. it's a confusing jumble of walkways and machinery, and it's difficult to appreciate that somewhere in here is a seven—storey—high tank of water called the primary containment vessel - the pcv. and now, it's time to go right underneath the reactor. wow! they think what happens after the meltdowns is that the molten fueljust burned through the bottom of the pcv and came down here, onto the what's known as the pedestal. that is where they think the fuel is now. it's difficult enough getting around this place on foot. now, imagine trying to remote control a robot through thi

we believe that tepco is lying about the effectiveness of these this unprecedented technology i mean you can you can use this to freeze under bodies of water you know soil so you can dig a tunnel but it's never been used in this kind of application to shore up against water moving into the this radioactive wreckage and so. plus isn't it i mean if the water is passing over the reactor of course the radioactive cores are not maybe literally read up but their damn hot they not only is it the ground water moving off the millions that they have to contend with but they're having to pour water over the. into the wreckage itself to keep the cores cool and we've been doing that for now is to heat if you're going to close the ice walls and just melt them more well you know again they're they're saying they're making claims that they're going to be able to freeze a wall but you know it might turn out to be just. a slushy and not really an ice wall at all but again how long and you know that they don't really know so stay tuned paul yeah having you know nukes yeah there you go thank you coming

both tepco and the government knew there was a risk of a tsunami but they underestimated that risk and that led to the catastrophe. almost six years later the first victims have finally been granted their long awaited compensation. that's all we have business back to sarah and the icelandic thunderclap yes some people might know this i mean this really became popular. and if you've ever seen it it's hard to forget it check it out it is quite famous it echoed around stadiums at the twenty six euro. this clap. that you hear quite. on that will be heard at next year's world cup now that's because iceland became the smallest nation to ever qualify for the world come the vikings ended up topping their group after beating kosovo and with a population of around three hundred and thirty thousand there preparing for a new wave of those thunder clap. on icelandic presenter proudly announced the historic achievement wearing a national team jersey. goes by goofy sigurdsson and johan good months and sealed the two nil victory of a kosovo to set the party going in the icelandic capital reykjavik aft
