A Dark Day in History
During the early morning hours of April 26, 1986, the Chernobyl nuclear power plant exploded. The Chernobyl Power Plant was built in the now abandoned town of Pripyat, Ukraine, North of Kiev. The incident was nothing short of devastating and the chain of events would lead to an evacuation of the whole city and the subsequent results of the radiation.
The event has been studied ever since. But even after years of scientific research and government investigation, there are still unanswered questions about the accident, especially regarding the long-term health impacts on those exposed to the radiation.
