What Chernobyl Looks Like In 2010

Posted by samzenpus on from the quiet-neighborhood dept.

An anonymous reader writes "The editor of Phoronix.com has toured Chernobyl's Zone of Alienation (the 30km zone surrounding the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant) to see what the area looks like 24 years after the world's largest nuclear disaster. Many photographs from Chernobyl in 2010 have now been published, showing off the power plant and its RBMK reactors, the town of Pripyat, the town of Chernobyl, and the Red Forest. The 24th anniversary of this deadly nuclear disaster will be on April 26."

    Well in addition I might point out that the world wide view of Americans is that they hijack any thread or topic, even on an international discussion about Chernobyl to go on and on about their petty insecurities about their government, history and or reasons for being "American".

    Just stop it.

    Thanks.
