  • In this episode of Look At This!, Desmond Shaw flies to the Santa Susana Field Lab. The old laboratory was supposed to be cleaned up years ago, but it's still nestled between the San Fernando and Simi Valleys.

    Keep covering this type of news! We cannot continue to let this tragedy swept under the rug. Too many lives have been shattered & even lost because of greedy businesses & shady politicians. You don’t know how many people who live by the site have never heard of it! I have 2 aunts who live in Simi Valley. Both had rare cancers, only 1 survived ❤

      Watch In the dark of the Valley. Awful! You’re also not the only one who has never heard of it, many neighbors of the SSFL never knew until there child was diagnosed with cancer. Incredibly sad

    Our family lived in Santa Susanna in the 50’s and early 60’s. My dad worked at Rocketdyne there in the valley. He died of cancer in 1972.

    My mom lived the bulk of her life in Canoga Park, and recently died of a rare cancer. My grandparents also lived in Canoga Park around that time, and both developed cancer (or lymphoma, in my grand-pop's case) very shortly after the meltdown in '59. I always wonder how much of that came from the Santa Susana accident.

      We still contribute tax dollars for the clean up for this & other sights like it. According to the EPA, they could use the funds “better” 😂. Watch in the dark of the Valley - you’ll witness horrific quotes from the people in charge of our tax $$

    One of the most beautiful landscapes in Southern California and it’s completely destroyed! My family and I were considering buying some land to put a home on in the area because it’s so amazingly beautiful with all of the stunning rock formations. The massively varied terrain is full of shade and micro-climate niches perfect for growing citrus and fruiting trees as well as being a very beautiful place to develop Xeriscape landscaping that would look simply MAGICAL if it weren’t in fact…. OUTRAGEOUSLY TOXIC! I weep at the tragic truth of this forsaken land.

    Nuclear power meltdown happened there back in 59. There was no dome on the exterior of the reactor too. So arguably worse than Chernobyl
