Facts Occurred on March 28, 1979 It was at a nuclear power plant near Middletown, Pennsylvania There were no deaths or injuries http://www.wired.com/wiredscience/2009/05/threemile/all/1

Facts One of the coolers failed at 4 a.m. on the 28th This caused the reactor to overheat It only caused minor melting Only small amounts of radioactive gases were released http://caseyspulpit.blogspot.com/2012/01/nw-nuke-whoops-offers-cautionary-tale.html

Facts The day proceeding the accident a large amount of radioactivity was released Those closest to the accident were evacuated until it was safe to return http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doc-collections/fact-sheets/3mile-isle.html http://firstalongtheriver.wordpress.com/2011/03/28/three-mile-island-nuclear-disaster-32-years-later/
