Intact dishes do emit radiation, but aren’t harmful. However, the risk of exposure increases if the pottery is chipped or cracked. Radioactive Fiesta Ware is highly collectible. Fiesta Ware made today is not radioactive. What color is radioactive Fiesta? Why … Continue reading →

American military scientists are developing a weapon which kills by delivering an enormous burst of high-energy gamma rays, it is claimed today. The bomb, which produces little fallout, blurs the distinction between conventional and nuclear weapons, and experts have already … Continue reading →

Never put batteries in your mouth, to test, to hold, or for any reason. They are slippery and easily swallowed. Is it dangerous to put a battery in your mouth? A button battery put in a child’s mouth can get … Continue reading →

Distilled water is safe to drink. But you’ll probably find it flat or bland. That’s because it’s stripped of important minerals like calcium, sodium, and magnesium that give tap water its familiar flavor. What’s left is just hydrogen and oxygen … Continue reading →

Nuclei with too many neutrons, too few neutrons, or that are simply too big are unstable. They eventually transform to a stable form through radioactive decay. Wherever there are atoms with unstable nuclei (radioactive atoms), there are nuclear reactions occurring … Continue reading →

The uranium-rich product is a yellow powder, called ‘yellowcake’ because of its colour. Yellowcake is a uranium oxide and is the raw material for manufacturing nuclear fuel. Milling produces very large amounts of crushed rock waste, known as ‘tailings’. Is … Continue reading →

Tesla patented his “valvular conduit” in 1920. It is essentially a pipe with an intricate internal design that forces fluid moving in one direction to loop back on itself at various points along its length. When water flows into the … Continue reading →
