Tentative Research Proposal

1. I am interested in researching Chernobyl Disaster because I have some clips and read some information about it, but I would still like to learn more about this event.

2. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chernobyl_disaster, http://www.world-nuclear.org/info/chernobyl/inf07.html, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bSRC1_OZPIg, http://chernobyl.undp.org/english/docs/belarus_23_anniversary.pdf, and http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10166374.

3. I don't have any questions.
