Nuclear meltdown

The Three Mile Island accident was a partial meltdown of reactor number 2 of Three Mile Island Nuclear Generating Station (TMI-2) in Dauphin County, Pennsylvania, near Harrisburg, and subsequent radiation leak that occurred on March 28, 1979. It was the most significant accident in U.S. commercial nuclear power plant history. On the seven-point International Nuclear Event Scale, the incident was rated a five as an "accident with wider consequences".

One of the nation's worst commercial nuclear accidents occurred forty-four years ago on March 28, 1979, at Three Mile Island.

Their indifference turned to alarm, however, once inside the reactor building stairwell, when their radiation detectors spiked to near-fatal levels. At 10:45 p.m., and clad in full protective…

Instant energy release: A nuclear explosion releases immense energy as heat, light, and radiation, capable of destroying everything within several kilometers. Radioactive fallout: Fallout from the explosion can contaminate air, water, and soil, posing long-term health risks. Nuclear winter: Nuclear explosions can block sunlight with ash and smoke, causing global cooling and environmental collapse.

Russia Launches Attacks on Ukraine Power Facilities, Causing Widespread Damage and Disruption Recent reports have revealed that Russia has launched a series of attacks on Ukrainian electrical power facilities, including a major hydroelectric plant. These attacks have resulted in significant damage and have disrupted power supply to various regions in Ukraine. Using artillery and rocket launchers, Russian forces targeted the hydroelectric plant, destroying transformers and critical…

Robert Maxwell is the first archaeologist to study the radioactive ruins of the Chernobyl disaster site. The Australian's photos give a haunting glimpse into the catastrophic nuclear meltdown.

Nuclear winter. After large-scale nuclear conflict, ash and smoke from explosions can block sunlight, causing drastic cooling and long-term environmental damage. The purpose of nuclear arsenals. While nuclear weapons aren't used in battle, their main purpose is deterrence, showcasing the potential for massive destruction. Underwater nuclear tests. Some nuclear tests were conducted underwater, creating massive explosions and radioactive clouds, leading to ocean and sea contamination.
