Chernobyl one of the worst human disaster ever took place in April 26 1986 in Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant near the town of Pripyat Ukraine .

# data[].attributes.body
This disaster had various factors contributing to it some of them being

. Reactor design flaws

the reactor was a RBMK (Reaktor Bolshoy Moshchnosti Kanalny), a Soviet-designed nuclear reactor. this reactor had a lot of design flaws that were significant so the disaster.

. Operator Error and Safety Test Failure

this disaster happened during a safety test to simulate a power failure to see how long the plant lasted running without external electricity how ever lots of errors

this ended up making it explode opening up the core and sending radiation partials flying all over Europe

this impacted the economics in a lot of different ways like the clean up efforts that costed around $700 billion. Or like all the livestock and crops that where affected do to all the radiation spreading around in Europe which contaminated the soil and crops mostly Ukraine and Russia areas . Impact in healthcare- lots of fire fighters or often called (liquidators) had to often be treated for radiation illnesses this reduced economic growth due to disability claims .All of the trauma and fear caused because of the disaster combined with the fear of long term helth problems had social effects that ended up affecting the economics . and there's many more other affects

Chernobyl was about 1.9 miles away from the town Pripyat wit making it very close to the disaster. This town was built in 1970 it was a very modern town at its peak the town had around 49,000 people most of there were workers and engineers from the power plant and their families

. immediate deaths two people died the same night it exploded

. Long term deaths - is ben estimated that thousands more have dies from cancer and radiation illnesses "The World Health Organization and the United Nations estimate that up to 4,000 additional deaths could eventually occur among those who were heavily exposed to radiation, such as emergency workers and residents of contaminated areas." there's not a specific number of deaths but there is a estimate f 9,000 deaths because of cancer that could be related to Chernobyl

this a affected the planet because the soil and crops were getting contaminated and livestock was dying

This event is important because in its time nobody had seen something like the disaster of Chernobyl before .this is important because now we know more of how power plants works and if something similar was to happened we have a idea of how to solve it. and how to save as much as the environment possible

# data[].attributes.body
this changed the ways we see the environment because it thought us the danger of nuclear energy and the long term effect it can have in the environment . it also thought us on how we need to save the environment not just for us but fore future generations that will end up needing it .

.kept a secret

This disaster was initially kept a secret and Sweden was the first to inform other nations which is over 900 miles away.

.kept running

it took serval years for the rest of the reactors to close after the disaster whit Reactor 1 was closing in 1996, Reactor 2 was closed in 1991 after a fire, and Reactor 3 operated until 2000.
