This is a website established by a Ukrainian woman who took a motorcycle ride through the areas affected by the Chernobyl meltdown in late April, 1986. She took pictures throughout the ride and, long short, it all amounts to a simple and striking documentary of how badly our hubris can bite when given half a chance.

This is, quite possibly, one of the most...I don't know what the best word is. Amazing? Impressive? Shocking? - sites I've ever seen. Give it a look over, maybe you can think of a word for me.
