A black fungus called Cladosporium sphaerospermum has been found growing on the walls of Chernobyl 's No. 4 nuclear reactor.
A reactor at the nuclear plant melted down in 1986 , releasing smoke and causing thousands of deaths.
An entire city, Pripyat , was evacuated and is abandoned to this day , lying within a 19-mile exclusion zone.
The fungi could eventually help to clean up radioactive waste and even protect humans from radiation during deep space missions.
