Chernobyl-2. Look beyond the horizon
One of the most unique and secret places of the Chernobyl zone - the object of "Chernobyl-2". In Soviet times, this place was supersektretnym, on maps it was not, it was forbidden to civilians to approach the part closer than a few kilometers. Only with the collapse of the Soviet Union and the accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant on the existence of forests in Polissya a small town (military garrison), which is engaged in "space espionage" appeared at least some information. In the 1970s, Soviet scientists have developed a unique radar system that allows you to monitor ballistic missile launches from the territory of a potential enemy (submarines and military bases). Designed Radar treated horizon radar stations (ZRGLS). With the huge size of the receiving antennas and masts, Duga demanded a large human resource. At the facility carrying on combat duty around 1,000 soldiers. For the military, and their families had built a small town that has one street which was called Kurchatov.

The main object was part of-the-horizon radar Duga-1, also known as an object of "Chernobyl-2" or a simple arc. "Doug" (5N32) - Soviet Duga working for early detection of launches of intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs). The main task of this station was the early detection of ICBM launches, not only in Europe but also "over the horizon" in the United States. In those years, none of the world's plants did not have such technological capabilities.
Log in to this place for a long time remained closed, but last year it was opened to tourists. At the site there are signs that it was prepared for demolition, but thankfully stopped the time. One of the projects of recovery and recycling of thousands of tons of metal was very simple - dump nafig this design. Good thing these idiots thought better of it - a drop in construction would cause nehily earthquake, and the Chernobyl sarcophagus have got very strong ...
After the accident, which occurred at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant April 26, 1986, the station was taken off combat duty, and its equipment underwent conservation. Civil and military population from the facility was urgently evacuated from the area, which has undergone radiation contamination. When the military and the leadership of the Soviet Union were able to assess the full magnitude occurred environmental disaster and the fact that the object of "Chernobyl-2" can no longer be started, it was decided to roll out the security of systems and equipment to the city of Komsomolsk-on-Amur, it happened in 1987 year.
According to available information, Duga consume about 10 megawatts. It is obvious that the construction of a nuclear power plant near Duga due to the large energy of the object. A network of rumors that one of the power units fed only full arc. The cost of the construction of the high-powered radar in the different sources indicated different, but it is known that the construction of "Arc-1" has cost the USSR in 2 times more expensive than commissioning 4 ChNPP.
Estimate the size of the supports Duga. It's just an incredible design! According to some sources, the cost of capital amounted to seven billion Soviet rubles
These cells are called vibrators. from the entire wall with these capsules recalled a piece of the Matrix with people-batteries.
In which case the top of the Arc could rise like a staircase and an elevator.
It is difficult to talk about the exact geometrical sizes Duga. These public sources are contradictory and probably inaccurate. Antennas are constructed on the principle of a phased array antenna. Since one antenna could not overlap a broad frequency band, the entire band is divided into two sub-bands and the array antennas also supplied two:
The low-frequency antenna: mast height from 135 to 150 meters, length - from 300 to 500 meters. On Google Maps length is 460 meters.
High-frequency antenna: about 250 meters in length and 100 meters in height. On the maps of the length - 230 meters
For all fans of the game universe "Stalker" - a place of worship. According to legend, games and books, this design was "cautery brains" - a huge zomboantenoy. Among the people there were rumors that the station - a military psychotronic emitter. These rumors were denied after the declassification of Duga. in fact they were the basis of the legend of the game.
Despite the fact that the "Chernobyl-2" was a top-secret facility in Europe fast enough to understand the causes of interference, called the Soviet station "Russian Woodpecker" for the characteristic sound of the air, and submitted claims to the Soviet government. USSR received a number of official statements from the western states, where it was noted that in the Soviet Union by the system largely affect the safety of maritime shipping and aviation. In response, the Soviet Union has made concessions on its part and stopped using the working frequency. At the same time designers were given the task, they were instructed to eliminate all weaknesses radar station. Designers together with scientists have been able to solve the problem, and after modernization Duga in 1985 began to pass the procedure of state acceptance, which was interrupted by the accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant.
At the top we have got because of lack of time, but a few spans still mastered. The photo Acne - the conqueror of Duga)
