The time is midnight, April 25th, 1986. A pleasant warm Friday in the northern region of the Kyiv oblast. And in a little over 25 hours, this scene will be changed forever. Tomorrow, the fourth reactor of the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant will explode, two dying due to the explosion, and another twenty-nine succumbing to radiation related illnesses. The total number of deaths can only be estimated in the thousands. But how did Chernobyl explode? Let us follow that story along.
