April 26 of this year marks the 33rd anniversary of the Chernobyl nuclear catastrophe. Despite common belief otherwise—even after Fukushima—scientists consider it to be the worst nuclear accident to date. I have followed the aftermath of the accident for over 25 years. The photographs in this gallery show:
A Chernobyl tour guide enhances the visit to the Zone by wearing a “nuclear” contact lens in one eye.
Even after Reactor No. 4 blew up, the remaining three reactors had to still be kept operable.

A windowsill in a village home bears witness to the abrupt evacuation.
In the “atom town” of Pripyat, abandoned rooms have been stripped of anything usable.
An increase in thyroid cancers is the undisputed result of radiation exposure.
After the accident, over time, some 200 villages in the so-called “Exclusion Zone” were evacuated… …however, in the early years following the catastrophe, some 1,000 former inhabitants returned illegally to live out their lives on their contaminated soil.
In 2011, the Ukrainian government legalized organized tourism inside the Exclusion Zone.

For more detailed stories on the accident and its aftermath, follow me @Gerd Ludwig, where I am frequently posting from my explorations into the Exclusion Zone, the reactor, and the plight of victims still suffering from the fallout. #chernobyl
