Japan Earthquake 2011: Explosion At Nuclear Plant Tears Down Walls Of Building

It's of little value when the electricit­y that runs the pumps is down, as is this case due to the damage done by the earthquake­s.  

What we're seeing is that the back-up to the fail-safe mechanisms (back-up generators­) have failed (batteries­) and they've been scrambling to get more in.  In the course of that, reports are that the core got exposed, which is what occurred at Chernobyl.
