A new documentary I found last night on Chernobyl was quite revealing
Some of you know I have been to Chernobyl and seen for myself the state the place is in and the causes behind the accident. I did suspect the higher authorities were aware of the flaws and limitations but this new evidence confirms it and to a massive extent. This documentary for the first time reveals what was known before during and after the event this is due to a historian gaining access to once classified KGB archives It’s a really good watch so check it out

Quite long, will watch it later.
I found the explanation in the last episode of that mini-series from three or four years ago very good and comprehensible for a layman. Was quite eye-opening.

I was quite surprised at the level of accuracy portrayed in the HBO series even down to Legasov glasses
When you look at the footage from the actual incident and compare it it’s very accurate The only thing was that they condensed the time line which was expected due to only having 5 episodes I also felt they didn’t show the bio robots the ones who went on the roof enough Skasgards portrayal of Sherbina was pretty good too

I am no intimate expert for the Chernobyl desaster and so cannot appreciate such nuances and fine details since I do not even notice them, but I felt the series to be convincing and believable, a good concept with a very good execution. I think it was damn well made. And it linked up to not only my head, but also my heart.

Me neither I have only seen news program and documentary about this nuclear powerplant.
Even though it's almost 40 years ago it still fill the Danes. Those who's against nuclear use this as an argument. Markus

I knew of your visit and research into Chernobyl, Kapitan. I don't know that I would have wanted to visit and get that close as you did. I was curious if you knew how stable the damaged reactor is and the roof shielding placed over the damaged reactor.
There were reports that Russia was haphazard at best in stationing troops there and reported shellings of the plant itself. |

This is the one I have been looking for its done by PBS Nova its called Suicide mission into Chernobyl.
In this documentary you get to see inside the sarcophagus and the scientists who climb all over reactor 4 and its lid. The documentary was done in 1991 it is one hour long https://archive.org/details/NOVA.S18...C2.0.x264Astro

Thank you Kapitan for the concise and informative and in depth answer to my questions in post #6. With radioactive half-lifes, I don't expect things to improve regarding radioactive contamination in my lifetime.
