Daiichi nuclear power station, Okuma, Fukushima Prefecture, Japan. This is the site of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster. At left is the administrative building. The blue storage tanks at right 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.
