Yikes. Hope its not connected to the internet..

"Of course, I’m not going to go in there to take pictures! For reference, staying in this place would be deadly in just a few minutes."

What about sending a drone or robot inside and take the pictures safely from outside?

The radiation levels have killed "drones" several times before.

Fortunately, there were plenty of"human drones" available to assist with removing graphite.

Tank chassis robot with lead foil casing around the electronics then?

If the other control room is contaminated now, wasn't it unsafe to work in after the explosion? They still had a few reactors in operation for a time.

Good to see the control room still runs Windows XP with default Teletubby background. I wonder whether this is a vulnerability and an upgrade is planned.

It's unlikely to have any internet connection there - so there's little to no risk.

There are three control rooms mentioned, it seems - the current 'Arch' control room and the original control rooms for units 3 and 4. Article says that even the unit 4 control room was once decontaminated and stripped of equipment. The unit 3 one is the one that was used for years after.
