Those are the smaller aftershocks that you are seeing in the mag 5 shocks. Yes it's a log scale. For each increase in whole numbers on the scale the magnitude of the quake is 10 times greater.
Only the core area of the nuclear reactors are designed for earth quakes. But the axillary equipment that helps run the nuclear power plant is vulnerable to earth quakes.
Many barrels filled with nuclear waste were overturned and leaked radiation all over the place.
This is warning to everyone that nuclear power plants are a disaster waiting to happen. And when they do spill radiation you might as well make that area a waste land for the next 10,000 years.
Nuclear energy and the waste it produces should not be the future of mankind.
We already have too many nuclear submarines sitting on the bottom of the ocean spewing out radiation now.
What do you think the consequences will be when we actually start going to war and ships start getting hit with missiles and their reactors spew radiation all over the oceans?
We are already using spent nuclear waste to process war when we shoot depleted uranium shells during times of war.

That's not Japan's only problem ... Someday they have to tell the world the biggest kept secret that they have already developed the atomic bomb and have several stored somewhere.
