35 years ago today, on April 26, 1986, the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant, near the Soviet city of Pripyat, broke down. The reactor explosion and radioactive contamination combined to create one of the worst nuclear disasters in history, both in terms of cost and casualties.⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ We're commemorating the disaster with this video from @fuelpublishing and details from their 248-page photobook, 'Chernobyl: A Stalkers’ Guide' by Darmon Richter.⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ In this volume, Richter, a researcher and tour guide, journeys into the contemporary Exclusion Zone, venturing deeper than any previously published account. While thousands of foreign visitors congregate around a handful of curated sites, beyond the tourist hotspots lies a wild and mysterious land the size of a small country. In the forests of Chernobyl, historic village settlements and Soviet-era utopianism have lain abandoned since the time of the disaster—overshadowed by vast, unearthly megastructures designed to win the Cold War.⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ Richter combines photographs of discoveries made during his numerous visits to the Zone with the voices of those who witnessed history—engineers, scientists, police and evacuees. He explores evacuated regions in both Ukraine and Belarus, finding forgotten ghost towns and Soviet monuments lost deep in irradiated forests, gains exclusive access inside the most secure areas of the power plant itself, and joins the “stalkers” of Chernobyl as he sets out on a high-stakes illegal hike to the heart of the Exclusion Zone.⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ Read more via linkinbio.⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ #darmonrichter #chernobyl #exclusionzone #chernobylstalkersguide #chernobylexclusionzone https://www.instagram.com/p/COIuir5pt3s/?igshid=17dgyriyeuoqo
