#35 years of chernobyl

LIVE

35 years ago, on this day, November 30, 1986, the Shelter, also known as the Sarcophagus, was commissioned.

A huge reinforced concrete structure designed to conquer the “peaceful atom” so that after that it wouldn’t harm anyone.

Eternal memory to those who took part in the liquidation of the consequences of the Chernobyl disaster.

Hello, dear comrades!

I hope you are in good health and mood.

Today I’d like to share with you a book about Chernobyl that I recently bought, and it took its place on my Chernobyl bookshelf (tbh, there is no space left there).

It is called “Ймення зорi Чорнобиль» (The name of the star Chernobyl).

This book-photo-album was released in 1996 in honor of the tenth anniversary of the accident. Captions are written in Ukrainian, and since I have been very interested in this language lately, it is a great pleasure for me to read them.

Here are some pictures from the book.

The book also published a letter from Valery Khodemchuk’s mother to her son.

And I couldn’t hold back the tears while reading it…
