Thank you for pointing that out. Nuclear reactors today (and many even "back then") are very, very stable and have so many safeties in place, that it's hard to cause a second Chernobyl meltdown, if I'm not mistaken.
Modern designs literally can't melt down, have failsafes built in to the design, and run using literal nuclear waste.
