NOVA - Inside Chernobyl's Sarcophagus

Uploaded by Jimdangello on Jul 30, 2009 

"This episode won an Emmy. It covers the sarcophagus built to contain the remains of the destroyed reactor and the work of the Russian scientists, staff and soldiers who risked and continue to risk their lives in the clean-up operation. This file was digitized from a VHS recording of the program. The picture quality is fair, however, the sound track has some occasional static, especially towards the beginning. I think this is the 1996 updated version of the original 1991 program and includes an extra 10 minutes of interviews with several of the original scientists. It is shorter than the 60 minutes described on the BBC website and may have been edited."

• New Safe Confinement - The New Safe Confinement (NSC or New Shelter) is the structure intended to contain the nuclear reactor at Chernobyl, Ukraine, part of which was destroyed by the Chernobyl disaster in 1986. The idea is to prevent the reactor wreck from leaking radioactive material into the environment. Originally planned to be in place by 2005, as of 2010 the confinement is expected to be completed in 2013
