   Is it true that Chernobyl was caused by the Soviets "testing" how long a nuclear power plant could operate with safety turned off?

     @sun I believe the belief was they were testing how high it could go because the officials wanted to know and they didn't give them time to make it safe

     @sun No, that's not what the test was about.

     @sun Yeah, I believe they did in order to facilitate the test or something.

     @sun 1. No shielding. 2. Design flaw caused radiation to skyrocket when the reactor was scrammed. 3. Incompetent operators.
