a nuclear power plant exploded in the town of Chernobyl and what was then the Soviet Union, now Ukraine, 60 miles north of Kiev. The explosion caused a fire and the release of massive amounts of radiation that drifted across northern Europe, affecting the inhabitants and food grown in the entire region. The area around the plant was evacuated permanently and the damaged reactor entombed in millions of tons of cement. The long term scope of the disaster continues to unfold.
