The plant’s control panel and a model of the reactor core will be preserved, as well as signs, maps, and photos from the time of TMI-2’s partial meltdown in 1979.

On Friday it was announced that Three Mile Island’s Unit 1 nuclear reactor will reopen, pending regulatory approval. The facility is home to the nation’s worst nuclear incident when in 1979, Unit 2 experienced a partial meltdown due to human and mechanical errors.

A power company is planning to restart a dormant nuclear reactor at Pennsylvania's Three Mile Island nuclear generating station to help meet the power demands of high-tech data centers.

The plant last operated in 2019, and was the site of the most significant commercial nuclear power accident in US history.

Following Constellation Energy’s announcement this week that it signed a 20-year power purchase agreement with Microsoft to launch the Crane Clean Energy Center (CCEC) and restart Three Mile Island (TMI) Unit 1,

Three Mile Island brings back memories of the horrors of a nuclear accident. The Unit 2 reactor core partially melted down when equipment malfunctions, compounded by human operator errors, caused a water pump failure that resulted in a loss of coolant to the reactor,

Nuclear energy has a complicated history in the United States, due in large part of Three Mile Island itself. In the 20th century, it was billed as a clean energy of the future but the partial meltdown of TMI's Unit 2 in 1979 soured public support and helped dampen many other proposed nuclear plants.
