High detail 3d animations and explanations of the inner workings of Chornobyl nuclear power station. Showing why it was so vulnerable to blowing itself up and how it was different from western reactors. Illustrated here are: The absence a reactor pressure vessel and containment structure. A size comparison with the Fukushima reactor and its containment layers. The uranium fuel assemblies and graphite bricks. The control room location. Close up views of the explosion crater with the reactor lid nicknamed "Elena" shown flying through the air. The temporary radiation shield "sarcophagus" and the final permanent confinement arch. Chernobyl was a nuclear power station in Ukraine, Soviet Union. Its reactor blew up on Saturday 26 April 1986 at 1:23 am.
