The show?Chernobyl, more or less,?explained to people?how the nuclear disaster occurred, the effects of which can be seen in the town, even 30 years later.?
Parts of the region around still have really high levels of radiation and people are advised not to visit the place.?
However, for some reason, authorities believed that it would be a good idea to open the control room at Chernobyl to tourists, 30 years after the disaster. The radiation there is still 40,000 times higher than the normal level.?

Tourists will be equipped in protective suits and masks and will be allowed to look around the ¡®Unit 4 control room in the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant¡¯ - the seat of the disaster.?
Internet is littered with apocalyptic images that show the decaying room where in 1986, the scientists committed a series of errors which led to the inevitable disaster.?
Chernobyl, the Netflix show made the place an attractive tourist destination.?

According to reports the ¡®State Agency of Ukraine on Exclusion Zone Management is designing the 21 new tourist routes to feed the growing interest.¡¯
One of the new routes will put tourists inside the control room where the disaster began.
The tourists visiting the room will only be allowed to be in the room for not more than five minutes.?
We have only one question, why though? How is it a good idea to encourage people to enter the epicenter?of a disaster, we possibly still do not completely understand?
When the place is so dangerous and has such high radiation, why allow humans there in the first place?
