Gamma rays and radiation technology

Intersting day today/yesterday. We visited a radiation technology
research and product development company.

They do all kinds of interesting things with radiation and gamma rays.
Shockingly after that description I must remind everyone that I am not
a science teacher.

They research develops everything fro
space food to cancer cures. We saw inside a beam accelerator. They had
Geiger counters and lead walls. It was safe, ok I'm pretty sure it was
safe

The picture is of Cobalt-60 been beamed. That's the bulk of my science
knowledge, sorry Mr. Clancy.

Later!
