Robots Enter Fukushima Plant to Assess Radioactive Debris

Robots Enter Fukushima Plant to Assess Radioactive Debris

After a bad accident at the Fukushima nuclear plant in Japan, there's still a lot of dangerous stuff left behind.

It's too dangerous for people to go in, so they're sending in robots.

These robots, like a dog-like one named Spot, will check how much radiation is there and take pictures.

This helps the workers figure out how to safely clean everything up.

It's a long and tricky job to remove the radioactive debris, but the robots are helping them get it done.
