It triggered a tsunami with a wall of water 128 feet high. The tsunami damaged the nuclear power plant in Fukushima triggering the nightmare scenario--a nuclear meltdown.\n\nFor six days, employees at the plant worked to contain the meltdown and disaster workers scoured the surrounding flooded area for survivors.\n\nThis book examines the science behind such a massive disaster and looks back at the people who experienced an unprecedented trifecta of destruction.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1626727007\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.1626727007.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Langeland, Deirdre\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
