  • ☢️April 26, 1986 was the date of the worst nuclear disaster in history. ☢️
    What was supposed to be a standard safety test, ended up with the explosion of reactor number 4 of the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in the Ukraine, in the Soviet Union.
    Once the fire was extinguished, and the danger of further explosions eliminated, what remained was a complete mess.
    It was a mess that someone had to clean up.
    Around 600,000 people were recruited by the Soviet government for the job.
    They were known as Liquidators.

      How many also gave their lives in the initial explosion to buy time for the others? I remember hearing about a team of engineers working the plant had done that rather than evacuate.

      Their effort led up to nothing after the old sarcophagus was leaking, but thru the decades the radiation weakened. The new safe confinement indeed did it's job. The diver's job was to open 3 valves in the basement to prevent the fuel from reaching the water and making another explosion destroying everything in a 30KM radius.

      @Omar 11112 Yes.
      Sand was dropped into the core and melted into lava, which would eventually melt through concrete into two water tanks.
      The steam explosion would be equal to 2-4 megatons of TNT, blowing up in a 30 KM radius. It would scatter radioactive dust all over Europe and irradiate millions of people, causing millions of mutations and deaths from cancer/birth defects.
      Yes, it would have been disastrous.
