[QUOTE]Originally posted by Shakaar: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Da_bang80: [qb] I remember this little fact from a few years back, i don't remember the source or if it's even true. But it said that every human being on the planet has some Plutonium atoms in thier system because a nuclear powered satelite fell to earth and exploded spreadying the plutonium into the atmosphere. Has anyone else heard anything similar? [/qb][/QUOTE]I would doubt this- Plutonium is very rare, we are awash in radiation though at all times, and do have radioactive elements in us. Carbon 14 is radioactive, and all carbon contains carbon 14- this is how we "carbon date" things, via what the half-life of the carbon 14 is. Coal burning energy plants have released much more radiation into our environment than the nuclear industry has. [/QB][/QUOTE]
