High detail 3d animations and explanations of the inner workings of Chernobyl nuclear power station. Showing why it was so vulnerable to blowing itself up and how it was different from western reactors.

Illustrated here are:
The absence a reactor pressure vessel and containment structure.
A size comparison with the Fukushima reactor and its containment layers.
The uranium fuel assemblies and graphite bricks.
