#2   There was/is a risk of aftershocks and more tsunamis that continues. Electric generation wasn't the only thing knocked out at Fukushima Daiichi, but also cables & transformers. Very tricky problem.

#1  The Japanese finally admitted the radiation is at levels that could be lethal.

I'm wondering if a ship with generators could have been deployed within 24 hours after the tsunami to provide the backup power needed. If such an operation is feasible, then it should be looked at for future operations.
