The Chernobyl disaster occurred at Chernobyl Nuclear Plant, Ukraine is considered to be the worst nuclear power plant disaster ever as the explosion and fire released large quantities of radioactive particles into the atmosphere which spread over much of the western USSR and Europe. On April 26, 1986, a fire began at the reactor number four of the Chernobyl plant as a result of a series of stem explosions which happened while attempting an emergency shutdown due to an unexpected power surge during a test. The disaster claimed the lives of 54 workers instantly and over the years almost 4000 people have died due to diseases from the projection to radiations.http://pelings.com/
