Is depleted uranium actually radioactive (despite being depleted) or is it just poisonous while inert? I've never heard some one clarify that

The biological half-life (the average time it takes for the human body to eliminate half the amount in the body) for uranium is about 15 days.[10] The aerosol or spallation frangible powder produced by impact and combustion of depleted uranium munitions can potentially contaminate wide areas around the impact sites, leading to possible inhalation by human beings.[11] Yeah and it was probably responsible for both Gulf War syndrome and a multitude of health effects on the Iraqi population over multiple generations.

plz ignore the actual OPCW investigators and whistleblowers who literally went to douma as part of the OPCW mission saying that the western narrative was manufactured and instead listen to the internet journalists funded by the cia so you can get a stiffy at big daddy trump bombing browns

StashAugustine posted:Is depleted uranium actually radioactive (despite being depleted) or is it just poisonous while inert? I've never heard some one clarify that Uranium-235 has a half-life of over 700 million years. It's fissible and radio-active. Uranium 238 isn't fissible (which means it cannot sustain a chain reaction in a thermal-neutron reactor or, you know, a bomb) but you can use it to make Plutonium. Uranium 238 half-life is 4.4 billion years and it's why it's radioactivity is weaker than Uranium 235. You can imagine why it's not the ideal for ammunition.

Toplowtech posted:Depleted doesn't mean decayed. It's still radioactive. Fully decayed uranium is lead. In nature, what's called "uranium" contains 99% of uranium-238, 0.7% of uranium-235, and a very small amount of uranium-234 (0.006%). Depleted uranium shell are made of uranium-238. Is the radiation itself dangerous or just the fact that its poisonous? (Not questioning if its dangerous, just want to get the chemistry clear)

On a more lighter note American and Chinese Embassies in the Middle East (in this case Kuwait) are busy having a twitter slapfight in Arabic over which of their technology companies are worse spies on middle easterners than the other, with American embassies calling out huawei while china is calling out the American PRISM surveillance program. https://twitter.com/chinaembkuwait/status/1288413989526003712?s=21 Kinda rules how there’s two superpowers working hard to convince us whether it’s better that a Chinese worker in Chongqing or an American worker in Wyoming gets to look at our Dick Pics and put it on a server.
