Fish farm in Chernobyl Bashny.Net

Looking at the state of the city of Pripyat in 2014. Nikita-blogger Maxim Mirovich offers a look at another object.

If you're ever in Chernobyl can ask accompanying stalker show you an unusual and rather interesting scientific object - base hydrobiologists, which functioned much before 2008 - 20 years after the accident.

To get to the base is quite simple - Sarcophagus from the destroyed fourth unit coming towards the third stage - unfinished Fifth and Sixth NPP. On the left side you will see a frozen cranes that build the third stage, pellets of graphite bricks intended for putting some of the core reactor of new boilers, and not constructed units, as well as metal tower towers.

Almost immediately after the cooling towers are cooling pond of NPP (at the bottom of which is flooded village Nagortsy), and right on the shore of the pond, and you will see this database.

18 photo.





Before the 1986 accident was fisheries, consisting of two buildings - administrative building, laboratory and hatchery, where fish are bred. Corps abandoned quite recently that is immediately obvious by their state - everything is in fairly good condition.



Login overgrown vines. Let's go inside.



The interior of the laboratory and amenity building. Note paneled doors - they are typical of the buildings of Chernobyl '70s; such doors can often be found in Pripyat (in buildings such as a recreation center "Energetic"), which is quite interesting - I do not remember such doors in Minsk in buildings under 1950.



Rooms. Right - the entrance to the kitchen.



In the nineties the base belonged to the Chernobyl Centre for International Studies, in the two thousandth - Chernobyl Radioecological Center. Over time, the amount of research and work declined, and eventually mothballed base in 2008.



The remains of a gas stove in the kitchen. Water and heating in a building not - even though it was used in the "uninterruptedly" forwarding mode - a group of scientists lived here for several weeks if not months. Drinking water at the base brought in cans and decide the problem of heating the installation of two electric heaters.



Laboratory premises. Tools and equipment taken out scientific organizations themselves, the rest finished off looters. As seen in the photo above - even dragged metal kishochki gas stove.



Toilet, by the way, on the basis of the same was not - he was just on the street, such as "point in the floor."



The second building of the complex - hatchery. Before the accident, there were grown fish, and after the accident - were engaged in scientific experiments and farmed fish profile, and also studied the ecosystem of the cooling pond. Interestingly, when and for whom was painted arrow on the building?



View from inside the shop. Something between a factory and a farm shop.



Under the ceiling you can see here are the lights - it is clear that the coverage repaired relatively recently, with the help of modern tape. By the way, exactly the same has caught us on the project "Chernobyl-2".



But in these cylindrical vessels with conical bottom grown fry.



On the walls were pictures of fish species, which once bred on the farm.



And that's it?



Next to the building there is a nuclear power plant cooling pond, the pond is large enough and there a lot of fish - large flocks of juveniles are seen next to the coast.

Views of the cooling pond.

And on the shore of the pond there is such a bench.
