Chernobyl. Scatti dall'inferno. Ediz. illustrata: "È difficile immaginare di essere così vicini al mostro. Chernobyl è una parola che fa tanta paura, è un nome proprio diventato sentimento comune, spavento. Vedere le foto, leggere la cronaca al dettaglio di chi ha sfidato la propria carne per raccontare, colpisce al cuore". (Andrea Satta) All'una e 26 minuti della notte del 26 aprile 1986 la centrale nucleare di Chernobyl , costituita da quattro reattori realizzati tra gli Anni '70 e '80, esplode lanciando nell'atmosfera venti milioni di Curie di materiali radioattivi. La nube tossica raggiunge dapprima i Paesi scandinavi, poi il resto dell'Europa, con il governo ucraino che comunica solo con colpevole ritardo l'immane tragedia verificatasi a Pripyat, dove vivevano circa cinquantamila persone. Che cosa ne è, oggi, di Chernobyl?
"It's hard to imagine being so close to the monster. Chernobyl is a word that is so scary, it is a name of its own that has become a common feeling, a fright. Seeing the photos, reading the retail chronicle of those who defied their flesh to tell, strikes at the heart". (Andrea Satta) At one and 26 minutes on the night of 26 April 1986, the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, consisting of four reactors built between the 1970s and 1980s, exploded, throwing twenty million Curies of radioactive materials into the atmosphere. The toxic cloud reaches first the Scandinavian countries, then the rest of Europe, with the Ukrainian Government only communicating with culpable delay the immense tragedy that occurred in Pripyat, where about fifty thousand people lived. What has become of Chernobyl today? "Looking at the images and reading the words of Massimiliano Squillace on Pripyat, the abandoned city two kilometers from the plant, leads us to reflect, more than any debate of any analysis. It makes the horror feel on your skin. Chernobyl is not a statistic to be dissertation on; it is a tsunami that has wiped out thousands of lives and as many have been marked forever." (Filippo Penati) "All around us is forest. The forest that we are crossing in the immediate vicinity of the plant is called red forest: it was a pine forest the size of our average city, located in the area within a radius of ten kilometers of the Chernobyl nuclear site, which following the accident suffered a radioactive fallout up to 4.81 GBq/m² that made it first turn red. so die
