S1E2 — Episode 2
Soviet authorities blamed operator error for Chernobyl, deliberately hiding a fundamental reactor design flaw. The shelter hastily built over the wreckage soon began crumbling, until a vast steel arch sealed the ruins in 2016. But in 2025 a Russian drone struck the arch, threatening fresh radiation releases from a site that will remain radioactive for 20,000 years. Can it ever be made safe again?
