I think it will be found, if in ten years or more when it can be entered, if ever, that the fuel rods, shattered by the hydrogen explosion, dropped the fuel pellets to the bottom of the reactor core, where they melted into a blob called "corium", which even if the containment remained sealed otherwise, it could burn through the boron control rod openings and drop down to the basement floor inside the doughnut shaped "suppression chamber" the reactor is centered above. If this room is full of water then if we are lucky it will negate the "china syndrome" theory, and can be entombed NOW. Reactor 2 is still a threat, funky stuff going on. Reactor four it turns out was under renovation at time of the quake and cooling pipes had been removed and sealed off, so the doomsday machine of SFP 4 may have a ticking time bomb next to it for all we know.abomb
