Three Mile Island: America's Largest Nuclear Meltdown Disaster

Sign up or log in to save this to your schedule, view media, leave feedback and see who's attending!

Feedback form is now closed.
Three Mile Island near Harrisburg, Pennsylvania was home to a nuclear reactor site. In 1979, a technological failure, along with a lapse in the knowledge of the employees working at the plant, led to one of the cores melting down. This disaster led to a reassessment in the regulation of nuclear power plants and sparked a debate about possible health and environmental impacts in the surrounding area.
