The Hindenburg
4/26/86, Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant, Ukraine
Operators commit a series of safety violations, including turning off the emergency core cooling system and overriding the plant's automatic shut-down procedure, which lead to a fire, explosion, and core meltdown. Accounts of the total amount of radiation released into the environment vary, the US claiming an amount equal to that of all the previous nuclear tests and bombs combined, the USSR claiming somewhat less. 135,000 people were displaced by the fallout, all residents within 18 miles of the plant, as well as children from some villages 100 miles distant, were evacuated, and the European Communtity banned all meat and produce from Eastern Europe for several weeks. 31 people die , and 209 suffer serious radiation exposures. The estimate of the number of cancer deaths during the next 70 years due to the accident ranges from 5,000 to 500,000, although the 6,000 to 24,000 range is seen as most probable
