The United States' Three Mile Island Nuclear Power Plant is situated close to Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.
Situated in the Susquehanna River, just south of Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, is Three Mile Island, home to the Three Mile Island Nuclear Power Plant. It is made up of two pressurized water reactors that are referred to as TMI-1 and TMI-2.
The TMI-2 reactor experienced a partial meltdown on March 28, 1979, which is the most famous event related to Three Mile Island. In the history of the US commercial nuclear power generation business, this event is regarded as the most serious accident. The containment structure effectively contained the majority of the radioactive contaminants, despite the reactor core suffering significant damage.
This incident significantly altered public opinion of nuclear power and caused modifications to industry safety policies and practices. TMI-1 kept running following the mishap until its shutdown in 2019.
