It was on this day in 1986 that an explosion occurred at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in the then-Soviet Union (now Ukraine). The accident happened during a systems test of a new safety procedure, and the resulting fires spewed radioactive smoke across Europe and the western part of Russia. Over 350,000 people were evacuated from surrounding areas. Over 30 fatalities have been directly connected to this catastrophe, and it is estimated that anywhere from 2,000 to 800,000 more deaths are related. 2,500 employees still work at the plant (though it is no longer producing power) and the “sealed zone” surrounding the area is expected to be open to tourists later this year.
