 A nuclear power plant in Ukraine  Located in the city of Pripyat  6 reactors at the plant l_Disaster.jpg/200px-Chernobyl_Disaster.jpg

 A nuclear meltdown  Reactor #4 melted on April 26, 1986  It continued to burn for many days

 Large amounts of radiation  Caused thyroid, leukemia and non-thyroid solid cancer  Cardiovascular disease and Cataracts in eyes  500,000 workers effected  Received the most radiation  Food and water sources are still contaminated  Cost an estimated 18 billion rubles (579,667,000,000 US dollars) to clean up
