@amazeifystore: Chernobyl wasn’t caused by one mistake. It was a test that exposed a reactor with a runaway edge. ⚠️ On April 26, 1986, operators tested whether the turbine could keep pumps running after a grid loss. At low power, the RBMK reactor became dangerously unstable: more steam increased reactivity, while the control rods initially added reactivity as they entered. The result was a power surge, ruptured fuel channels, and the destruction of Unit 4. Was this primarily an operator error, a design failure, or both?
