At 26th of April 1986 the accident that became one of the worlds most catastrophic disasters happened. This led to evacuation of the city Pripyat and caused a lot of radioactive pollution around northern Europe.

There is no good things about the accident in Chernobyl... but it probably made people think twice about nuclear power.
