You know how when you buy ice cream in the summer and it melts a bit by the time you get home to eat it? And somehow that just makes it even more delicious?

The eagles were only rated for 2000 roetgens

I wonder if anyone suggested the idea of training birds to life the radioactive debris off the roof and dump it back into the core? Can't e that unlikely after the idea of using exploding bullets to blast the material back into the core

If the engineers took precautions and care while handling a fucking nuclear reactor, they would've noticed the fault with the SCRAM system of an RBMK reactor and fixed it. Instead, they played with the reactor like it's a toy and discovered the problem the hard way
It was the engineers, and most importantly Dyatlov

>On May 9, V-Day, a general came. They lined us up, congratulated us on the holiday. One of the guys got up the courage and asked: “Why aren’t they telling us the radiation levels? What kind of doses are we getting?” Just one guy. Well, after the general left, the brigadier called him in and gave him hell. “That’s a provocation! You’re an alarmist!” A few days later they handed out gas masks, but no one used them. They showed us Geiger counters a couple of times, but they never actually gave them to us.

I found a husband eventually. I told him everything—the
whole truth—that I have one love, for my whole life. I told him
everything. We'd meet, but I'd never invite him to my home,
that's where Vasya was.
I worked in a candy shop. I'd be making cake, and tears
would be rolling down my cheeks. I'm not crying, but there
are tears rolling down.
I gave birth to a boy, Andrei. Andreika. My friends tried to
stop me. "You can't have a baby." And the doctors tried to scare
me: "Your body won't be able to handle it." Then, later—later
they told me that he'd be missing an arm. His right arm. The
instrument showed it. "Well, so what?" I thought. "I'll teach
him to write with his left hand." But he came out fine. A beautiful boy. He's in school now, he gets good grades. Now I have
someone—I can live and breathe him. He's the light in my
life. He understands everything perfectly. "Mom, if I go visit
grandma for two days, will you be able to breathe?" I won't! I
fear the day I'll have to leave him. One day we're walking down
the street. And I feel that I'm falling. That's when I had my first
stroke. Right on the street. "Mom, do you need some water?"
"No, just stand here next to me. Don't go anywhere." And I
grabbed his arm. I don't remember what happened next. I came
to in the hospital. But I grabbed him so hard that the doctors
were barely able to pry my fingers open. His arm was blue for a
long time. Now we walk out of the house, he says, "Mommie,
just don't grab my arm. I won't go anywhere." He's also sick:
two weeks in school, two weeks at home with a doctor. That's
how we live.

Khodemchuk was more likely incinerated in the initial explosion, there's probably nothing left to recover.

No, they didn't - it wasn't a state secret, but they just failed to see it as an actual problem the first time it occurred. The first time this malfunction occurred SCRAM was still completed successfully and the entire event was overlooked as an anomaly
If the engineers actually performed the experiment in the limits that it was supposed to be performed - the same thing would've happened - and having the same problem occur twice would prompt someone to actually look into it (since something happening multiple times is no longer an anomaly).
1. They lowered the power output of the reactor 3 times below what they were supposed to do
2. This prompted to use the SCRAM, which wasn't intended to be used in the first place
3. However, this time SCRAM fully malfunction and fucked the core

Helicopter pilot

>I was scared before I went there. But then when I got there the fear went away. It was all orders, work, tasks. I wanted to see the reactor from above, from a helicopter - to see what had really happened in there. But that was forbidden. On my medical card they wrote that I got 21 roentgen, but I'm not sure that's right. Some days there'd be 80 roentgen, some days 120. Sometimes at night I'd circle over the reactor for two hours.

>I talked to some scientists. One told me: "I could lick your helicopter with my tongue and nothing would happen to me." Another said: "You're flying without protection? You don't want to live too long? Big mistake! Cover yourselves!" We lined the helicopter seats with lead, made ourselves some lead vests, but it turns out those protect you from one set of rays, but not from another. We flew from morning to night. There was nothing spectacular in it. Just work, hard work. At night we watched television - the World Cup was on, so we talked a lot about football.

>I guess it must have been three years later. One of the guys got sick, then another. Someone died. Another went insane and killed himself. That's when we started thinking.

>I didn't tell my parents I'd been sent to Chernobyl. My brother happened to be reading Izvestia one day and saw my picture. He brought it to our mum. "Look," he said, "he's a hero!" My mother started crying.

Jeez woman, fucking get a grip.

IIRC they only filmed some scenes with him talking to his son, but decided it was out of place for the tone of the show (since he's basically talking to a hallucination) and scrapped it.
Plus, nobody actually knows if Dyatlov was genuinely blaming himself for his death or not; everything about his feelings when it comes to his son would have been pure speculation.

he's just covering his ass from the very start, core exploded? lol dindu nuffin

I'm sure he knew but probably wasn't thrilled at the prospect of being sent to a gulag or executed.

It didn't explode though.

He came to a certain realization that he was screwed, but old habits are hard to break and you stick to the party line, even when the disaster is staring you in the face. Who knows? The person interviewing you might be a spook sent to check on your loyalty, making sure your story stays consistent. After all, if you're sick with ARP and your colleagues are dying around you, it wouldn't be surprising for you not to recover.

It was an experiment, it doesn't have to be successful , that's why it's called an "experiment". You do it to practically see what works and what doesn't. I'm not defending Fomin, he probably deserves the same treatment as Dytlov - but he wasn't the one to disable all safety mechanism and put the core into extremely unstable position. The SCRAM malfunctioning was just the topping of the cake, it wouldn't've malfunctioned if they kept the reactor in safe limits

Rather than lower the power, it briefly raised the power prior to lowering it. That spike was large enough to make the already unstable reactor go boom.

Not only did the rods displace some of the water to cool the core, thus causing a higher temperature, worse, the tips of the rods were of a flawed design and made of graphite. The graphite actually caused the reaction to worsen cause graphite is a neutron moderator.

How does she know about Lyudmilla's baby? Oh she was conveniently following her and then presents a grieving mother's coping mechanism as scientific fact
She brings up the power spike in AZ-5 which Legasov says they found out about 10 years ago but was actually discovered 3 years prior to Chernobyl
A lot of the information presented in this episode was done in a very ham fisted way with characters only knowing things because the writers needed to fit this information in and it's obvious when you watch that this is happening

He was done in more ways than one.

How many girls are even watching it? Which makes her inclusion even more pointless.

Did all the firefighters die?

>male nuclear scientists get red skin on their faces from lethal doses of radiation trying to save the world.

Okay, you gotta compress to fit reality into a mini series. I'll tolerate it.

Please limit this bullshit.

Fuck off already.

I don't know why we got told about Lyudmila instead of seeing it. I guess they thought it was too much misery but hearing about it second hand from a character who has no reason to know is really lazy.

They watch it they just still find other things to complain about instead

Why were the rods tipped with something that accelerates the reaction if they're there to slow it down? Must have been an important reason, right?

What a selfish bitch.

The boy isn't healthy. He has lifelong health issues too

I don't know. Maybe they notoriously didn't give a shit about communism so giving away their party card wasn't a big deal for them.

How could radiation kill the robot circuits?

But he didn't have a party card

>Can I copy your homework dude?
>Sure man just change the words around a little

was it really necessary to kill the cow?

Because it only accelerated the reaction *sometimes*. More often than not, it simply slowed the neutron flux, and that was good enough for the USSR.

It was very painful

I think it means he's a fucking nobody with no real choice.

it could be carried by an african swallow

They only discovered that this happened three years prior to the Chernobyl event

It seemed strange they were giving the guys on the roof Geiger counters. They are getting sent up there no matter what for a time they already determined. Letting them know how much clicking was going on doesn't change that.

>Environments with high levels of ionizing radiation create special design challenges. A single charged particle can knock thousands of electrons loose, causing electronic noise and signal spikes. In the case of digital circuits, this can cause results which are inaccurate or unintelligible. This is a particularly serious problem in the design of satellites, spacecraft, military aircraft, nuclear power stations, and nuclear weapons. In order to ensure the proper operation of such systems, manufacturers of integrated circuits and sensors intended for the military or aerospace markets employ various methods of radiation hardening. The resulting systems are said to be rad(iation)-hardened, rad-hard, or (within context) hardened.

If the collective group of scientists had been represented by a man, it would have basically just been the same character as legasov which would have been pointless. Cant believe people are so triggered by this and cant enjoy some absolute kino.

After watching the series and enjoying the last month of threads, I bought the voices from Chernobyl book. It's a great read, but very sad.

>What do I remember? What stuck in my memory? I've spent all day riding through all the villages, measuring the radiation. And not one of the women offers me an apple. The men are less afraid: they'll come up to me and offer some vodka, some lard. Let's eat. It's awkward to turn them down, but then eating pure cesium doesn't sound great, either. So I drink, but I don't eat. But in one village they do sit me down at the table-grilled lamb and everything. The host gets a little drunk and admits it was a young lamb. "I had to slaughter him. I couldn't stand to look at him anymore. He was the ugliest damn thing! Almost makes me not want to eat him" Me: I just drink a whole glass of vodka real quick. After hearing that ...

She was fine until this episode when her Mary Sue levels went above and beyond
The amount of information she knows "Just because" is insane

They removed them by hands ?

why is the belarussian physicist so knowledgeable about literally everything lmao, i almost thought it's just because she's a woman but honestly they made her fucking omniscient, i don't even think shes based on a real person

I don't think they had the clicking counters in real life, they had a personal device that measured the cumulative exposure so that everybody knew when they "were done". Some people threw theirs away to go for a second or third round, some traded theirs to go home earlier.

>why are ukranians talking about holodomor?

uuhhhhhh

Keep the sad stuff out, ok? This is supposed to be an upbeat thread,

This is how dumb the average slav is.

Yes you can manually remove the control rods from the reactor

It's not about representing anything; it's about coming off like a dick through interactions with other characters.

Because she's been working in an institute where half the scientists are busy developing nuclear weapons. She already has top level clearance or she wouldn't be working where she did.

In the show, her institute looks like a backwater outhouse. Like Mulder's office in Z-files

I know you're trolling but I hope this bait is as clever as I think it is.

"Manual"

What information could she not have known?

Estimates have about a quarter of them dead as a result of Chernobyl, I think.

When they said they were remaking Weekend at Bernie's, I wasn't so sure, but this is encouraging

That's what a typical Soviet institute looked like.

Lyudmilla's baby
The fact that "The baby absorbed the radiation" which is not scientific fact, it's just Lyudmilla's reasoning
The knowledge of AZ-5 and the power spikes
The fact that Akimov actually hit AZ-5 is not confirmed either and is just a theory with no proof

they get glassed as they dig under the core

suck party dick until he's a low level member of the central committee and eventually be sidelined or have his job given to someone new

ok my theory is simple enough to understand.
They smoke 5 packs a day while they were working in Chernobyl. So there were 2 options. Either dying from radioactivity caused by an incident like the one that happened or dying by lung cancer.But what happens when you're dying from both radioactivity and smoking??

YOU LIVE because the brain enters to a state of confussion,that cant decide which one triggers you the most.So instead of making a decision your brain freezes(hybernation) and finally you die from stupidity

What do Russians/Ukrainians/Belarusians think of the show?
Has Putin banned it yet?
She has the knowledge of thousands of women nuclear scientists (that totally existed and aren't made up in any way comrade) behind her.

my wife and my mother, also my wife's sister

All would have been known by the collective scientists she represents.

>if it was a man it would be a pointless character
>yet somehow making her a woman means she's not a pointless character
hmmmmmmmmmmmm

It's debated whether AZ-5 was pushed before or after the reactor exploded. It may have been immediately after.

Chernobyl was literally the first of its kind. No one expected there to be a fucking core explosion and that they need to have high-range dosimeters. Even when they got the high-range dosimeters, they initially thought that dosimeters were broken because they considered the numbers so absurd.

>Because of the inaccurate low readings, the reactor crew chief Alexander Akimov assumed that the reactor was intact. The evidence of pieces of graphite and reactor fuel lying around the building was ignored, and the readings of another dosimeter brought in by 04:30 were dismissed under the assumption that the new dosimeter must have been defective.

>What do Russians/Ukrainians/Belarusians think of the show?
they're not showing it in those countries

40% of women in the Soviet Union were scientists.

Learn to read. Pointless because it would be the same character as legasov.

and got 2 seivert dose which is pretty bad. and then 4 at chernobyl which usually kills people. the man was fucking imunized from radiation.

True actually. The cancerous tumors act as a biological shield by absorbing all the radiation, like in chemotherapy, protecting you from ARP and ridding you of cancer all at once.

No one knew about Lyudmilla's baby except the doctors involved
Why would random Chernobyl scientists know this?
The same with her coping mechanism which she talked about in Voices of Chernobyl
The scientists also couldn't have known about the timing of the AZ5 being pressed since no one today knows

So what, you can still watch it, plus theres one studio which apparently got itself the rights to voice hbo shows

>no nazis, just "german boys"
well they took it from west germany in the 80s, not from the fucking reich, what is her problem

But the sad stuff is the heart and soul of this whole experience. These poor people are for some reason cursed by god to suffer some new atrocity every couple of decades. I don't know why it is though, or did God leave that place long ago?

>My wife took the kid and left. That bitch! But I'm not going to hand myself, like Vanya Kotov. And I'm not going to throw myself out a seventh-floor window. That bitch! When I came back from there wit ha suitcase full of money, that was fine. We bought a car. That bitched lived with me fine. he wasn't afraid [Starts singing.]

>Even one thousand gamma rays
>Can' tkeep the Russian cock from having its days.

>Nice song. From there. Want to hear a joke? [Launches right in.] Guy comes home from the reactor. His wife asks the doctor, "What should I do with him?" "You should ash him, hug him, and put him out of commission." That bitch! She's afraid of me. She too the kid. [Suddenly serious.] The soldiers worked next to the reactor. Id drive them there for their shifts and then back. I had a total-radiation-meter around my neck, just like everyone else. After their shifts, I'd pick them up and we;d go to the First Department-that was a classified department. They'd take our readings there, write something down on our cards, but the number of roentgen we got, that was a military secret. Those fuckers! Some time goes by and suddenly they say, "Stop. You can't take any more". That's all the medical information they give you. Even when I was leaving they didn't tell me how much I got. Fuckers! Now they're fighting for power. For cabinet portfolios. They have elections. You want another joke? After Chernobyl you can eat anything you want, but you have to bury your shit in lead.

New>>

nah its a fucking chest xray, comrade.

They would have bothered to get all that information if they weren't racist sexist misogynistic shitlords.

Probably what everyone else does: it's cool, but takes some liberties in events / characters for dramatic purposes. They did capture the entire soviet "look" thing really well though.

>t. live near where the hospital was filmed

>Valery, a scientest from Uzbekistan jsut called, they had a psychic premonition telling them that Lyudmila is pregnant.

It was to offset the effect of something else and save uranium or something

Anyway, it was unbiased. It isn't like she said evil Bolsheviks and super nice German saviors, she said Russian boys and German boys.
Civilians suffered from both armies, like when the USSR went scorched earth while retreating.

REDACTED PAGES

>What do Russians/Ukrainians/Belarusians think of the show?
I think it's really neat, but somewhat overly dramatic and cinematographic.
I also really like how accurate it is to the period, the thing I especially adore is the soviet machinery and gadgets. Must've been difficult getting them.
The show also ignores the volunteers going to the power plant, as well as forced conscription. They acknowledge their existence, but don't have any scenes where soldiers are sent off, or where volunteers are gathered.

as the father of a little girl with another on the way, this actually hit my feels hard

And none of them were involved with Chernobyl. There are multiple fields of science, of just one

Nigga you think the country where undesirable people were killed if they were lucky, sent to Gulags if they weren't and all traces of their existence were wiped out would have problems with backhanding someone for talking too much?

Boris and Legasov both strike me as a little too classy to hit a woman over something like that.

One thing has nothing to do with the other, and at that point men and women had been equal in society for three generations. Someone who thought the way you do would have been considered an extreme outlier and psycho by both men and women, and the secret police would have your ass for assaulting a highly skilled professional, something the commies always lacked, for calling you out as a retard, an assessment virtually everyone would agree with in that society.

>at that point men and women had been equal in society for three generations
KEK
Not even gonna reply to the rest, this alone is enough. Show me a woman in a high political rank of the URSS, I'll wait.

Most did. One who was named Hero of the Soviet Union got so much radiation it turned his eyes from brown to blue

I never said they had political equality you retard, though they could accomplish far more than you probably think. Plenty women leading various departments or organisations, though mostly in science and education.
