worse case scenario would be a meltdown and lots of nuclear particles entering the atmosphere. as well as the immediate area it would also decimate much of eastern japan. i heard that cesium already entered the atmosphere which contains alpha, beta and gamma types of radiation. gamma is the worst as it penetrates just about everything and causes the most harm. if that gets into the atmosphere then its bad bad news.
thats a worst case scenario, we are not looking at a mushroom cloud here. i am sure that every effort is being made.
