10Chernobyl
- 26 April 1986 disaster in Chernobyl plant, near
town Pripyat, Ukraine - the worst nuclear power
plant disaster in history and the only one
classified as a level 7 event on the
International Nuclear Event Scale - 31 people
died directly because of explosion - official
numbers of deaths in case of radiation provided
by World Health Organization estimated 9,000
deaths and some 200,000 people sickened in 2005
but the real numbers are even more higher
11Fukushima
- This is a satellite image showing damage at
935am on March 16, 2011, five days after the
earthquake struck.
12Informations before It lies about 250 km north of
Tokyo. Owner is Tokyo electric Co. Fukushima was
nuclear power plant with highest performance
until disaster.
Description and Course
Reactors 4,5 and 6 had been shut down prior to
the earthquake for planned maintenance. The
remaining reactors were shut down automatically
after the earthquake but the subsequent 14-metre
tsunami flooded the plant, knocking out emergency
generators needed to run pumps which cool and
control the reactors. The flooding and earthquake
damag prevented assistance being brought from
elsewhere.
