Inside the reactor building of what would have been reactor no. 5 of the ChNPP, had the catastrophy not prevented it from being completed. The first time, I visited this place in winter. The weather gods meant well by me, and temperatures never fell far below zero during the day. Unfortunately, what is good for us humans is not that great for buildings. The mild temperatures caused the snow and ice on the outside to melt ever so slightly, resulting in water dripping inside through every crack in the building. Knowing what water does to solid structures when freezing, and supposing this happens every year, Im actually surprised the whole building is still standing...
