In this episode of Compact Disasters, we follow the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Disaster, from the earthquake and tsunami of 11 March 2011 to the loss of power, failed cooling, hydrogen explosions, mass evacuations, and the vast cleanup that continues today. It is a story of natural forces, engineering limits, human courage, public trust, and the uncomfortable question of how prepared any society really is for a disaster that arrives in layers.
