GUARDIAN/
For the first time since the disasterous explosion of Chernobyl's nuclear reactor
#4 on April 26, 1986, the deserted complex will reopen for tourists.
Only groups with official approval with be allowed.
It will cost between $200 and 400 usd.
65 people died directly from the accident, but at least 4,000 were affected by radioactivity and perhaps as many 500,000 will suffer from the radioactive cloud that blew over Europe and radioactivity that may linger at least until 2065.
Hopefully, protective clothing will be provided.
