My first exposure to nuclear physics came at the age of 10 in 1947, two years after the atomic bomb had been dropped on Hiroshima.

Nothing much to do with the Lone Ranger, but everything to do with being proud we invented nukes and used them on a civilian population. Spinning it into the potent propaganda of children's cereal toys. That's pretty MAGA.

Yea, but Kinder Surprise eggs are illegal as fuck in the US...

On 1 November 2006, Litvinenko was poisoned and later hospitalised. He died on 23 November, becoming the first confirmed victim of lethal polonium-210-induced acute radiation syndrome.

If you're in the US, it actually is possible and legal to order small quantities of radioisotopes even today.

Just note, they DO NOT ship internationally. And if you try to order 10,000 disk sources, you WILL be getting an angry knock on your door from the NRC.

Huh and how many discs would it take to make a small generator for a house so I can tell my electric company to fuck off LMAO

For legal reasons that was a joke

Talk about inflation! These atomic rings were only $0.15 in 1947! And those disks for polonium210 are $120

Kind of cool but i wouldn't know what to do with it and i don't need an expensive hobby lol
