ecause of the
             incorrect regulator settings the reactor's power crashed to 30 MW from
             1,000 MW which is too low for the test. At that point the operators
             would have abandoned the experiment, but they attempted to rescue it,
             for the next time they would be able to conduct would be in one year
             only. The senior authorities who had ordered the test would have been
             furious and would have found out the regulator problem. So the
             operators decided, to pull out the stops to restore the reactor's
             power.2 Their third fatal mistake, was the pulling out of control
             rods. The plant's rule was to have thirty in at all times however they
             left all but six. By 1:00 Am the power risen to 200 MW, which was
             still to low for the experiment, however the operators continued. In a
             few minutes they made their fourth fatal error, by turning on two
             extra pumps to join the six that wee already cooling the core. This
             procedure under such low power caused a massive steam disorder. Their
             fifth fatal error was the turning off of the automatic shut off, which
             would turn off the reactor. At 1:23 a.m. on Saturday April 26, the
             workers began the actual experiment. They made their sixth error, by
             turning off the last safety system. It took the shift manager thirty
