Two nuclear explorers share photos, videos & stories from their trips to the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone, including a peek inside the Sarcophagus. With Ryan Pierce & Elizabeth Koprucki, NSDM staff.
Long Description:
Does your dream vacation packing list include disposable bunny suits, respirators, gloves, boot covers, head lamps, and lots of Geiger counters? Ryan Pierce and Elizabeth Koprucki were into Chernobyl before the HBO miniseries made it cool, travelling there in 2013, ’15, and ’16. They will share photos, videos and stories from areas not accessible on most public Chernobyl tours, such as the hospital basement, contaminated vehicle graveyards, the unfinished Unit 5 reactor building and cooling towers, abandoned laboratories, and areas inside the power plant, such as the Unit 2 control room, pump halls, turbine hall, and a journey inside the Sarcophagus to visit the Unit 4 control room where the fatal safety test that caused the meltdown happened. Presented by Ryan Pierce and Elizabeth Koprucki of the National Security Decision Making Game staff.
