In the morning of April 26, 1986, the reactor number 4 of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, exploded and scattered 200 tons of radioactive material, with a radioactivity equivalent to 500 atomic bombs.
The radiation scattered in Ukraine, Belarus and Russia.
The radiation cloud reached several European countries as well.
Between 1988 and 1994, 125,000 people died from radioactive fallout and over 400,000 were still in treatment.
The nuclear explosion increased the number of cases of thyroid cancer in children by 200%.
The total count of sick and homeless people were reached seven million!
Ukraine recognized that some 2,600 kilometres around Chernobyl will not be able to support human life. The reason is that the radioactive isotopes half-life is 24,000 years, and due to cesium and strontium levels the people have to wait at least 300 years before able to come back.
Actually there are more than 200,000 square kilometres of contaminated land.

It is estimated that between 300,000 and 600,000 "cleaners", worked on cleaning the affected area and in the construction of the concrete sarcophagus covering the remains of the nuclear plant.
This sarcophagus has deteriorated, and now it has a crack of over 100 meters long.
Ukraine raised 550 million euros to build a new sarcophagus and implement various programs of deactivation.
We are currently working on the construction of a second sarcophagus.
The new sarcophagus, covering the current steel and concrete one, will be a cube with a length of 257 meters, a width of 150 and a height of 108 meters.


It is estimated that any construction made ​​by man, not to overcome a life span of 1000 years.
The disaster at the Chernobyl nuclear plant, will pollute the planet for more than 24,000 years.

La madrugada del 26 de abril de 1986, el reactor numero 4 de la central nuclear de Chernobyl, exploto exparciendo 200 toneladas de material radiactivo, con una radiactividad equivalente, a 500 bombas atomicas.
la radiacion quedo exparcida por Ucrania, Bielorrusia y Rusia.
Varios años después la URSS aún cultivaba en tierras contaminadas.
La radiacion alcanzo en forma de nube a varios paises de Europa.
Entre 1988 y 1994 habían fallecido 125.000 personas por secuelas radioactivas y más de 400.000 seguían en tratamiento.
La explosión nuclear ha multiplicado por 200 el número de casos de cáncer infantil de tiroides.
Un nuevo recuento de damnificados, hablaba de siete millones de personas enfermas.
Ucrania reconoce que unos 2.600 kilómetros en torno a Chernobyl no serán más aptos para vivir. La razón es que "hay isótopos radiactivos con un período de desintegración de 24.000 años, y debido al cesio y al estroncio habrá que esperar, por lo menos, 300 años.
En realidad hay mas de 200.000 kilómetros cuadrados de terrenos contaminados.
Se calcula que entre 300.000 y 600.000 "limpiadores" trabajaron en la limpieza de la zona afectada y en la construcion de un sarcofago de hormigon que cubre los restos de la central nuclear.
Dicho sarcofago, se ha deteriorado, y tiene actualmente, unas grietas de mas de 100 metros de longitud.
Ucrania recaudó 550 millones de euros para construir el nuevo sarcófago y poner en marcha varios programas de desactivación.
Se esta trabajando en este momento, en la construccion de un segundo sarcofago.
El nuevo sarcófago, que cubrirá al actual de acero y hormigón, será un cubo con una longitud de 257 metros, una anchura de 150 y una altura de 108 metros.
Se estima que ninguna construccion realizada por el hombre, a superado una longevidad de 1000 años.
Sin embargo, el desastre de la planta nuclear de Chernobyl, contaminara el planeta, durante mas de 24.000 años
