Pripyat,Chernobyl exclusion zone. Abandoned gym in Pripyat,Ukraine. Pripyat is a ghost town near the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant,within the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone. On 26th April 1986,reactor number 4 of the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant went out of control,leading to meltdown and an explosion. Around 1000 square kilometres of land were directly contaminated by radioactive fall-out and a 30km exclusion zone was created. A concrete sarcophagus,the Object Shelter,was built to contain the radioactive materials,but within the restricted area the radiation is still lethal to humans | |
