We’re sure its something we can all agree on – so many places that are off-limits within Russia have something to do with nuclear energy. Sarov is a city located within Nizhny Novgorod Oblast, about 230 miles east of Moscow. Sarov is the place where the Russians conduct nuclear research. Similar to other calculated cities, it is massively guarded and out of bounds under normal circumstances. nevertheless, during the ’90s things were somewhat different. In 1993, with the dissolving relationships between Russia and the United States after the collapse of the USSR, Sarov became a sister city to Los Alamos, New Mexico. This is where the Americans directed their nuclear research. Researchers were permitted to visit Sarov.
