The Chernobyl disaster began on April 26, 1986, during a late-night safety test at Reactor No. 4 of the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in Ukraine. A sudden power surge led to a series of explosions, rupturing the reactor core and releasing a massive amount of radioactive material into the atmosphere. Firefighters and plant workers attempted to contain the situation, but their efforts exposed them to lethal doses of radiation. The Soviet government initially downplayed the incident, but the scale of the disaster became evident as radioactive fallout spread across Europe, prompting an evacuation of nearby residents and a long-term exclusion zone around the plant.

The Chernobyl light beam, also known as the "Chernobyl Blue Beam," was a visible blue light that shot up into the sky during the nuclear disaster at the Chernobyl power plant in 1986. This light beam was caused by ionization of the air due to the extreme heat and radiation released during the explosion. The significance of the Chernobyl light beam lies in its eerie and haunting appearance, serving as a visual representation of the catastrophic events that unfolded at the plant. It symbolizes the immense power and destructive force of nuclear energy, as well as the lasting impact of the disaster on the environment and human health.
