Three Miles Island nuclear accident occurred in the United States

45
years ago

28 March 1979,

In the United States, there was the Three Miles Island nuclear accident. This plant near Harrisburg released radioactive gas. On the first day the governor said on television that “the situation was under control”, but then he had to change his attitude. The evacuation was considered an opportunity and 140,000 people left, leaving about 300,000 inhabitants in the surroundings.
