| Even a seemingly tiny piece of radioisotope like plutonium can be emitting many millions of alpha, beta or gamma particles per week. |
| Those rods can be reprocessed into weapons-grade plutonium, enough for potentially three nuclear bombs. |
| The plant reprocesses deadly plutonium to make fuel for nuclear power stations. |
| And they have reactivated a mothballed nuclear reactor that can produce weapons-grade plutonium. |
| A ball of plutonium is surrounded with explosives, all of which detonate at precisely the same moment and with exactly the same power. |
| The days of reprocessing spent fuel to produce plutonium and uranium for potential reuse are numbered. |
