As Japan considers restarting its 48 nuclear reactors, members of the media and Tokyo Electric Power Company employees (wearing protective suits and masks) visited inside the central control room for the No 1 and No 2 reactors at the Fukushima Dai-Ichi nuclear plant on March 10, 2014. Three years earlier, the plant had three reactor core meltdowns after it was hit by an earthquake and tsunami on March 11, 2011.
