| Summary: | She was carrying more than 2220 passengers when she left the Southampton docks just after noon on that April day. This maiden voyage of discovery and adventure would soon become one of the most devastating maritime disasters of all time as the great ship collided with an iceberg, only minutes before midnight on April 14, 88 years ago. In just under 3 short hours, the freezing waters of the North Atlantic swallowed the Titanic ending the lives of over 1500 of her passengers and crew, forever changing those of the 707 survivors. In the early hours of the morning on April 26, 1986 a routine test of the reactor went very wrong. The nuclear power control engineers at Chernobyl unit 4 had no idea that their actions were about to produce the worst nuclear disaster of all time. Several human errors led to an uncontrolled reaction in the core resulting in explosions that lifted the cap off the containment facility. In all some 8 tons of fuel containing highly radioactive plutonium and other fission products were ejected from the reactor into the surrounding atmosphere. |
