Photo gallery: Gamma camera views inside Fukushima Daiichi Unit 1 reactor building
On 22 May 2011, TEPCO imaged the inside of Unit 1 with visible light and gamma-ray cameras. Here are a couple of photos from that expedition. Desdemona wonders if the pixel noise in the visible-light images is caused by gamma rays hitting the camera’s image sensor.
