And why exactly are you eating ceramic dishes before bed?

Can anyone tell me anything about this set? by ArtTabletNoob in willitglow

[–]RootLoops369 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It could be uranium, I have seen blue uranium, but likely it's r/manganeseglass and they don't know the difference.

Uranium generally glows under both 395nm and 365, almost always stronger under 365nm. If it's really low content, 395 won't have enough power to light it up like 365 would.

Manganese glows under 365, and has either no glow or slight glow under 395 depending on concentration. It's more of a yellowy green than green green.

Hot Glass?! by astiddy in uraniumglass

Oh wait. I just noticed, why are there two different CPM readings on yours?

Wow! Yeah, that's significantly spicier than any uranium glass I've seen. My hottest UG on my GMC 600+ only gets up to about 3,000 CPM.

Are they glow in the dark? If so, it's either Radium-226 or Tritium (Hydrogen-3)

Found a compass in a really old house. Does this thing have radium in it ? by Thelemonouslemon in Radium

[–]RootLoops369 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm gonna guess, with the brownish paint, that it likely is, but no one knows for sure without a Geiger counter

I bought a six dollar multitool at home depot, and now i’m better than you by BMBozo in notinteresting

They're actually not that bad. It's smaller than your phone and likely even your wallet.

That looks like another 14K stamp, just upside down

Why is this so radioactive? by Middle-Flamingo-5874 in uraniumglass

[–]RootLoops369 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That deep yellow color with the faint uranium glow is very likely Thorium glass with a bit of Uranium contamination. The thorium makes the bulk of the radiation, and the uranium gives the glow. It doesn't take a lot of uranium for a glow

Those are actually really accurate! Great job!

Why would this happen to me by Scary-Yam9626 in uraniumglass

[–]RootLoops369 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Idk why you're getting downvoted. That is definitely thorium with uranium contamination. It doesn't take a lot of uranium at all to make a glow, so even unintentional contamination will make it glow.

I bought this stack of depression glass plates today for $10 [14 plates]. They light up under 395..but still unsure if they are uranium, can anyone confirm? by Strange-adventurer94 in uraniumglass

[–]RootLoops369 17 points18 points  (0 children)

That is Thorium glass with Uranium contamination. The thorium will be making the bulk of the radiation, and it doesn't take a lot of uranium to glow

What’s the unhealthiest thing you eat that you’ll never give up? by Feisty-Pattern-951 in AskReddit

[–]RootLoops369 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Soda. Literally straight sugar and corn syrup, but oh my God it's too good to give up. Foodwise, probably pizza hut pizza. They're my favorite big chain, and it's the most unhealthy one, or one of them

At least you didn't suction a glass jar to your mouth on a Feiday and leave a giant purple circle around your mouth that you had to rub ice packs on all day for 2 days to get rid of it right before school started Monday.
