Consequences always follow pushing boundaries, but humans never stop exceeding perimeters. The engineers in Visit Sunny Chernobyl created a new frontier past the safety zone because they want to test the limits of the reactor. What the scientists didn’t account for is that fact that the reactors already had the potential of a dangerous chain reaction.

Blackwell thought Chernobyl was so horrific he expressed that no one should visit without a “working understanding of radiation and how it’s measured” (Blackwell 7). These are some horrific consequences that followed from surpassing the …show more content…

Once the snake took his youth-giving fruit, he was satisfied with just being the king. In Visit Sunny Chernobyl the engineers took the safety risk and failed. After that, engineers in other locations have taken the same risks conversely succeeding. Human nature forces people test what is known as fact because everyone wants to know the what
