Photographs show abandoned Pripyat devastated by the Chernobyl nuclear disaster
'It looks like our planet after humanity disappears': Haunting photographs show the abandoned hospital beds and rotting gas masks in the town devastated by the world's worst nuclear disaster 30 years ago
- Soviet city of Pripyat was once a thriving, vibrant community home to 50,000 scientists, workers and their families
- But on April 26, 1986, all that changed forever as a reactor at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant went into meltdown
- The Ukrainian town had to be abandoned after the nuclear explosion and is now desolate, eerie and dilapidated
- The Chernobyl disaster is one of only two power plant accidents classified as a level 7 event on Nuclear Event Scale
