UDSSR TSCHERNOBYL 1986
In this 1986 photo, a chimney and the sarcophagus under construction over the 4th destroyed reactor at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant is seen through a helicopter window. On May 12, 1986, more than two weeks after the explosion, the leading Soviet daily newspaper Pravda published its first photograph from the site for the first time, shot three days earlier from a helicopter by Repik. "If I had been ordered now to get aboard and go, I would not have gone _ you might have easily died there for nothing," said the 65-year-old Repik.(AP Photo/Volodymyr Repik)
