概要

At 1:23 in the morning on April 26, 1986, a safety test at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in Soviet Ukraine went catastrophically wrong. Reactor No. 4 exploded, releasing radiation across Europe and forcing the permanent evacuation of an entire city. In this episode of Knowledge Central, we look at what happened that night, why it happened, and how the world’s worst nuclear disaster still shapes the area today.

In this episode:

  • The late-night safety test, and the reactor design flaw that turned it into a disaster
  • The explosion, the fire, and the first responders who paid the highest price
  • The evacuation of Pripyat, and the Soviet government’s delay in telling the world
  • The cleanup by hundreds of thousands of “liquidators,” and the giant shelter built over the reactor
  • The Exclusion Zone today: abandoned towns, returning wildlife, and radiation that will last for generations
