's Susquehanna River as a constant reminder of both the potential of clean energy and the worst commercial nuclear accident in U.S. history.
A sign announces the closing of the observation center for the Three Mile Island nuclear plant in Pennsylvania, following an accident, March 28, 1979. A pump failed in the reactor cooling system, shutting down the plant and threatening a nuclear meltdown. "I heard a very loud noise that sounded like a huge release of steam," Whittock said in an interview the day of the accident. "I looked out the window, and it was dark, but you could see from the lights that there was a geyser of steam rising up in the air."
