- Abstract:
The article presents an interview with Alexander Yuvchenko, who was duty at Chernobyl, Ukraine's reactor number 4 the night it exploded on April 26, 1986. He is one of the few working there that night to have survived. He suffered serious burns and went through many operations to save his life, and he is still ill from the radiation. He recently broke his silence for a documentary to be shown on the Discovery Channel. Chernobyl was one of the best stations in the Soviet Union, it was a good town to live in, and he had been there for practical work as part of his studies.
