Breaking news “fission restarted at reactor 2?

Xenon133 and 135 are measured at reactor 2. Xenon is daughter of Uranium 235,half life time is 5.2 days(Xenon133),and 9 hours (Xenon135).
It proves the nuclear fuel is fissioning at reactor 2 still.
Tepco has starting injecting boric-acid solution into the (broken) reactor.
At reactor 2,Tepco finally started analyzing air filter of the container vessel on10/28/2011. As the result, they detected xenon 133 and 135. It may have been fissioning since months ago.


Before people jump to
Before people jump to conclusions, you need to wait until some analysis is done. TEPCO has made this mistake before, they have mislabeled gamma lines.
Really, you think they
Really, you think they jumped the gun?

Xenon detected in No.2 reactor
The operator of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant has poured water containing boric acid into the No. 2 reactor.
The move followed the detection of a radioactive substance, xenon, in the reactor's containment vessel, indicating that nuclear fission may have resumed.
Tokyo Electric Power Company poured boric acid solution into the No. 2 reactor for one hour from shortly before 3 AM on Wednesday.
