Sayano-Shushenskahya Dam on the Big Picture

If you didn’t hear, the Sayano-Shushenskaya dam in Russia, a large hydroelectric power plant, suffered a massive industrial accident last month when the turbine room was flooded for reasons not yet released. At least 74 workers died

The Boston Globe’s Big Picture treats it this week. If you don’t believe in the power of water, take a look at the photos.

There’s a sad, but powerful, image of a search (or cadaver) dog about halfway down.
