“Because of the inac­cu­rate low read­ings, the reac­tor crew chief Alexan­der Aki­mov assumed that the reac­tor was intact. The evi­dence of pieces of graphite and reac­tor fuel lying around the build­ing was ignored, and the read­ings of another dosime­ter brought in by 4:30 a.m. were dis­missed under the assump­tion that the new dosime­ter must have been defective.”

Alexan­der: Clearly, the reac­tor is intact.

Alexi: Why is there reac­tor fuel in the road, Alexander?

Alexan­der: That is clearly not reac­tor fuel, comrade.
