The Chernobyl Incident, also known as the Chernobyl Disaster, was the result of an unauthorized test at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant. Employees conducted a test in which the fission process went out of control and caused a massive explosion. Due to the fact that there was nothing to keep the radiation contained, the reactor was destroyed instantly killing 4 people . As a result, the neighboring town of Prypiat was evacuated immediately. It has been abandoned ever since. Today, Prypiat still holds a high concentration of radiation and has not been maintained for over 20 years. As a result, buildings have now fallen into disrepair and Prypiat has become a ghost town.
