A groundbreaking robotic mission is underway inside Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant — one of the most dangerous places on Earth.
A 22-metre-long snake-like robot has been developed to enter highly radioactive zones and retrieve samples of melted nuclear fuel debris left behind after the Fukushima nuclear disaster.
The disaster was triggered by a massive earthquake and tsunami in 2011, making it one of the worst nuclear accidents in history alongside Chernobyl disaster.
With radiation levels still too dangerous for humans, this advanced robot is equipped with cameras and designed to navigate narrow, tunnel-like spaces deep inside the reactor.
Around 880 tonnes of hazardous material remain inside the plant, and the full cleanup is expected to take decades, with major debris removal delayed until at least 2037.
Can this robot succeed where humans cannot? And what does this mean for the future of nuclear disaster cleanup?
