The revelation was made by workers of the power plant and people from the community around it, led by chief engineer and whistleblower Richard Parks. The four-part docuseries hails from the producers of Erin Brokovich, and it premieres in early May.
As you would expect from an exposé, the trailer for Meltdown: Three Mile Island teases some shocking events, starting with the impressively loud noise that came from the power plant in 1979, which scared the Londonderry Township inhabitants, and was just the tip of the iceberg that set in motion in one of the worst nuclear incidents in the U.S. history.
