Can’t wait till they explain how Trump caused it.
Sheer insanity.

The Russians are probably already in talks with Hillary and Chelsea’s new movie production company.
I’m surprised HBO didn’t do that version.

40. Ronald Reagan (January 20, 1981—January 20, 1989). Republican. Prior to becoming a politician Ronald Reagan had been a radio broadcaster and actor. He earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in sociology and economics. As president, Reagan implemented new economic policies that became known as “Reaganomics.”
I do NOT blame Reagan for any of this situation, BUT I do blame GHWB, having been in Dallas, Texas during the JFK assignation, and him being the head of the CIA...
So my answers are above...but it started long before this...
A Breeder Reactor with no Containment Dome.
Brought to you by the same People who discarded the obsolete Nuclear Reactors from their Decommissioned Submarines by dumping them into the Arctic Sea.
I really want to see the Russian version. It sounds great.
Clearly they’ve never learned the lesson.
Which means it will happen again.
Chernobyl was a very interesting and intriguing study during and after it actually happened, from all the captured video as it happened to the ultimate conclusions based on all the evidence on what caused the event thereafter... this before TV series and movies depicting the event.
My own conclusion is human error which was created by power of authority differences in the control room. Also undetected warnings.
Russia is like Mexico...always blames the US.
No, if it wasn’t brought under control world wide life expectancy would drop to the low 40’s and birth defect rates skyrocketing. Not just for our generation but 100’s of generations. This could have been an extinction level event. So as cynical as I am, I doubt the U.S would ever sabotage the reactor
CNN will take this as fact, and since it happened in 1986, they’ll blame Reagan.
I just watched an episode of Abandoned on the SCI channel a couple of hours ago (Sat. 6/8).
It was about a huge radar array in Russia that was only 7 miles from Chernoble. It was 500 ft. high and over a half mile long, designed to bounce waves to the Earth’s isophere and back. ...It was nicknamed the Woodpecker because its usage caused a tapping sound on all communication and computer devises.
Computers at that time required people to decipher the meaning of what they were seeing. ...It was proposed that the constant tapping from the radar array actually interrupted the data being monitored by the Chernoble computers that led to the explosion.
