 if you accidentally brush against something, you could be at risk of getting contaminated with dangerous levels of radioactive material, and the trip of your lifetime? earlier this month, Ukrainian authorities announced that they would be opening the reactor control room to visitors, as part of a larger effort to boost tourism in the Chernobyl disaster zone, the building is located under a a 355-foot, 36,000-tonne steel arch placed over an area around the reactor to prevent radiation leaks, photograph Amort1939/Pixabay,

tourists brave enough to embark on this tour of the reactors four control room will spend more time donning protective clothing and getting scanned for radiation both on entrance and exit than they will inside the room itself, according to several media reports, photograph lukaspawek/Pixabay,

Yaroslav Yemelianenko, the director of the largest tour operator in the Chernobyl disaster zone, assured journalists that if tourists stick to the specified tour, including the reactor control room, they risk becoming exposed to less than 4 micro-sieverts, which is less than the radiation exposure on a one-hour transatlantic flight, tourism in the Chernobyl exclusion zone has been booming ever since the hit show “Chernobyl” premiered on HBO in May, but has been boosted even more by Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky, who plans to “create a green corridor for tourists” in the area around the nuclear facility, there area number of day tours and longer avalable, this is just one of them, if you fancy a glow in the dark experience!
