On April 26, 1986, a catastrophic explosion at Reactor 4 of the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in Ukraine unleashed massive amounts of radioactive material into the atmosphere. The disaster devastated nearby communities, caused long-term environmental damage, and remains a chilling reminder of nuclear risks. Chernobyl's impact continues to shape energy policies and global safety standards.
