Nuclear Meltdown: Chernobyl
"No engineering failure in history had more world-changing consequences than the 1986 accident at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in the former Soviet Union. Discover the numerous design, personnel, and bureaucratic flaws that resulted in the explosion of Reactor 4 during a routine safety test—releasing 800 times more radioactive material than the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki." -- website
Nuclear Meltdown Disaster
by
Summary: NOVA reveals the minute-by-minute story of the Fukushima nuclear crisis-the one you know about...and the one you likely don't. With unprecedented access inside both Fukushima nuclear power plants, NOVA speaks with workers who were there during the harrowing crisis that began as a natural a disaster but was made worse by human beings. But why did the worst happen at one plant-and another that faced nearly identical challenges emerged unscathed? It may come down to the skill and knowledge of one man, who has worked there since they started construction. These are crucial questions as the company that runs both plants, TEPCO, tries to clean up an unprecedented radioactive mess and seeks to reopen the plant that was just barely saved.
