The reason Chernobyl failed is because the plans used to design the plant were old and out of date. The technology was years behind. Where as Three Mile Island has multiple fail safes. All nuclear reactors have these. If something fails they have a fail safe to stop it, and if that fails there is another; and so on and so on. Three Mile has 4 fail safes, two of which failed and the third caught it preventing disaster.
