The worst ever nuclear power accident occurred at Chernobyl in the Ukraine in 1986, when most of an operating reactor was spread around the surrounding countryside and a plume of gaseous activity reached many other European countries. However this was one of a kind, fortunately, nothing similar has ever happened elsewhere, and the PWR and BWR units used in the US and most of the world have been very safe and reliable. Nothing similar could happen unless there was a major disruptive failure of a pressure vessel, and this is judged to be an incredible accident, taking the level of incredibility at once in a million years, per reactor.
It would become an atom of a different element. This can only happen during radioactive decay, nuclear fusion, or nuclear fission.

Chernobyl, Ukraine, in 1986, is probably what you are thinking of.
No.It is usually Nuclear Power plants or Bombs. But a Nuclear Disaster is NEVER natural.
We can mitigate nuclear disaster because it is not harmful at all.
it means that either a nuclear rocket or a nuclear lab has exploded letting out nuclear waste and radiation which means the city would have to be evacuated until they are out of the nuclear radation zone.
It would be a disaster.
No nuclear energy, no nuclear weapons
