Chernobyl Archival Footage

On September 26th in 1977 the first power unit starts operating the Chernobyl NPP. It took a long time to choose a suitable place. The launch was delayed several times and the work progressed slowly. Besides, necessary workers delay supply of necessary materials. In parallel, three kilometers from the station, a new city was being built for its employees – Pripyat. At TVDATA’s stock footage library, we have Chernobyl Archival Videos from various years, starting from the day the accident happened until now.
