Legacy

"Legacy" - Vermaechtnis, Erbe, Hinterlassenschaft.

Thanks to Conscientious for the timely pointer to the remarkable Magnum in Motion essay "Chernobyl Legacy": "...twenty years ago, the then Soviet nuclear power station in Chernobyl blew up. I remember this event very vividly; back then I was living in what used to be West Germany, and part of the radioactive cloud made it all the way to Germany ...In any case, watch the Magnum in Motion essay Chernobyl Legacy to see the results of the world's worst nuclear disaster yet. I have to warn you, though, some of the images are pretty rough."
