Hello, I am looking for a detailed map of Pripyat with the names of streets and important buildings But I can't find anything Does anyone have any out there?

Hi, can I ask what is the meaning of sign above an entrance to City hall in Pripyať?

Nuclear shelter within civil defense in building? Or any organisation sign ? Thank you

In less than 2 weeks, the game S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: The Heart of Chornobyl will be released. And I had a question, have you ever played games from this franchise? And if you have, what do you think about it?

I just started playing the game 'Chernobylite'. Even though I haven't played much of it yet, I'm just curious how accurate the map of the game is. Does anyone know?

The game itself is obviously fictional. I'm just wondering about the map.

Hi all,

As part of my Minecraft project featuring all 3 stages of ChNPP I would like to have an as accurate as possible representation of the powerlines / switchyard around the site. I have traced as many as I can on google earth (attachment below), however I am still stuck with the 750kV link to Unit 6, as well as both 330kV lines that feed Units 5 and 6. There's also a substation close to ISF-1 that I am unsure of the layout there as the towers were removed long ago. Does anyone have anymore information on these at all? Or even a plan showing what the full layout would have looked like.

Overview showing the current powerline set up, blue is 750kV, purple is 330kV and orange is 110kV

There's also an isolated 750kV line crossing the cooling pond too, but that only goes as far as the pond boundary, was that for a 3rd 750kV line going to the switch yard?

Only 2/3 750kV lines continue

There's an isolated 330kV line that runs to the south of the 750kV switchyard (red)

Red lines show incomplete powerlines on the map

Control room 4 shortly after the accident. In the center is the desk of the NSB ( shift supervisor). You can still see a glass with something on it. Behind the reactor control panel, the workplace of Leonid Toptunov

Are there any articles or documents that introduced each part of Chernobyl? I can read both English and Russian.

Does anyone know if the Dyatlov trial, which appears in episode 5 of the HBO series, really exists? And if so, will anyone have it complete?

Would it be safe to travel to Chernobyl since there is currently a war? I seen where Russia said they pulled out of the area but didn’t know if it was true Jw if it would be safe to try and book a tour of the place

Can anyone make me a list of actions legasov put on the ladder (the red and the blue tiles) can anybody make a timestamp of that and translation please?

Can anyone provide a complete translation of the poster? I've tried to find the poster on the interweb but, so far, no luck.

Hello everyone,

I'm currently working on recreating parts of the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant site in 3D as it looked before the accident, and I have a question about the site's fencing.

As you can see in the second and third images, the site's fencing looked like this about 20 years ago: an outer concrete barrier (in blue) followed by two thin barbed wire fences (in red and green). However, in the third and fourth images, it looked quite different back then. Firstly, the layout of the fencing was completely different from today, but more importantly, while there was still an outer concrete barrier, instead of the thin barbed wire fences shown in the second image, there was a thick fence with concrete foundations and a faintly visible barbed wire fence in between (though it's hard to make out in the picture).

I would really like to know what these older fences looked like up close, as I only have images from today. Any reference images or additional information would be greatly appreciated!

Any help is welcome!

I am trying to gather info about the medical staff that responded the night of the 26th, I am already familiar with Belokon, Skachok, and Gumarov but can anyone tell me how many medical personnel and vehicles responded that night, also any individual info would be helpful thanks :)

Hey, do any of you Remember a certain YouTube Channel called RBMK-5000? He posted things about Chernobyl and soviet nuclear reactors. I cant find any of his old videos.

Hi guys im new to this subreddit i was wondering since reactor 3 wasn’t shut down till 2k and reactor 4 was so close to reactor 3 did the sarcophagus split the building of R3&4 in half does anyone have photos?

(Correct me if something is wrong) -power is not increasing because of xenon poisoning -orders of increasing power -most of the control rods are taken out -most they can go is 200mw -they still go on with the test -water pumps are off -nothing is decreasing reactivity now -xenon decays, steam is present, reactivity increases like wildfire -power surge -az-5 is pressed -all control rods go in -but this backfires as the control rods have a tip made of graphite which increases reactivity -increased reactivity causes any and all liquid water to turn to steam -fuel rods expands and ruptures -control rods cant move further in -graphite tips endlessly increase reactivity -reactor 4 is basically a nuclear bomb now -steam keeps blowing more fuel channels -lid goes off -super heated graphite + hydrogen + oxygen from outside goes kaboom Conclusion: This wouldnt have happened if the control room didnt do the test knowing fully well it wont work however we should also not overlook the fact that if the control rods tips werent made of graphite or if there wasnt a positive void coefficient (basically no water-coolants) this also wouldnt have happened as az-5 wouldve stopped the reaction.

"Hello, Daddy! I'm writing to you from Artek. Misha and I love it here. We are swimming in the sea. The water is warm. The surroundings are beautiful. We are worried: how is your health? How are you feeling in hospital? We now have two photos of you. Grandpa sent us one and Auntie Galya sent us the other. We look at them often and remember you. Yesterday we organised a swimming competition in the Priberezhny complex. The 9th fire detachment competed with us. Good, cheerful lads. I've seen this detachment's firefighters' diary for 1963. There are signatures from all the children. I noticed a surname written in a clumsy hand: "Telyatnikov Lenya". I was very happy. It was as if I'd met you. After all, you were an Artek boy. Unfortunately, I came third. Here's what I found out about the 9th detachment: your former advisers are now husband and wife. They live in Kislovodsk. I don't know their exact address. Your former colleagues from the detachment came to our post. They recognised you from an old photo. Daddy! Daddy! I received the little Olympia medal for the third degree and several certificates. Misha and I miss you very much and we wish you good health." -Oleg (Extract from a letter from firefighter Oleg Telyatnikov to his father in Moscow, at the 6th clinical hospital. Crimea, ♦ Artek*. June 1986)
