Quotes About Radiation

It would appear that the blue sky is actually produced by the solar wind and solar radiation exciting air molecules to emit light, just like a neon lamp!
~ Steven Magee, Light Forensics
Nobody could tell us or really had a very good idea, if there were a massive release of radiation, what kind of medical treatment people were going to need and this or that, or, indeed, whether there would be medical personnel around.
~ William Scranton
I will continue to push for doubling the strength of the U.S. Border Patrol, and to make sure that every cargo container that enters this nation is screened for radiation and potential weapons of mass destruction.
~ Nick Lampson
That's a tumor. It goes across my liver, up through my lungs, all the way around my heart. And when they were done trying to cut it out, nuke it out with radiation and chemotherapy it out, it left so much scar tissue that when I walk outside now in cold weather and take a deep breath, it feels like someone is stabbing me.
~ Eric Massa
In America, we have always taken it as an article of faith that we 'battle' cancer; we attack it with knives, we poison it with chemotherapy or we blast it with radiation. If we are fortunate, we 'beat' the cancer. If not, we are posthumously praised for having 'succumbed after a long battle.'
~ Abraham Verghese
Principles and Practice of Radiesthesia
~ Richard Webster
Time is in-form-ation. Fuller simplifies Einstein into a one-sentence poem: Matter is knots in energy. Matter is interference patterns. All radiations travel in geodesics, due to gravity which curves their trajectories. Where these trajectories cross, interference results: knots in energy, perceived by us as matter. The world of matter is the tuned-in. The not-yet-tuned-in is not not, it is merely not knot. Dig?
~ Robert Anton Wilson
even Deinococcus radiodurans perishes in it.
~ Kim Stanley Robinson
In his examination of the young dial painters, he'd discovered a fact that was impossible to dismiss. The women were exhaling radon gas.
~ Deborah Blum
I see it, I taste it. All the contamination. The low-level radiation, the storage sites, the runoff. Every place is sick—there's sick everywhere
~ Jeff Vandermeer
It is my assessment that most police officers who spend their days driving around USA cities will have some levelof radiation sickness and this is concerning!
~ Steven Magee
The radiation detoxification process exists in nature. It is called: Hibernation.
~ Steven Magee
and that amplifies the bio-force and everything starts. It's like the radiation, the glow, the bio-force gets stronger and awareness. Every member of the population is...there's a unity that happens like everyone's on the same page connected and the field of the planet is strengthened. It changes the field of the planet.
~ Dolores Cannon
What's all this fuss about plutonium? How can something named after a Disney character be dangerous?
~ Johnny Carson
What these satellites do is they record light radiation that's reflected off the surface of the Earth in different parts of the light spectrum. We use false color imaging to try to tease out these very subtle differences on the ground.
~ Sarah Parcak
A radio telescope pointing at the sky receives radiation not only from space, but also from other sources including the ground, the earth's atmosphere, and the components of the radio telescope itself.
~ Robert Woodrow Wilson
There is no doubt that we should take solar radiation into account. We have seen ground temperatures rising since 1975, and it is important to know to what extent that has been caused by the sun or by carbon dioxide.
~ Bjorn Lomborg
Pick a pair of them, lost in each other, a matched set like a vision out of the past. Nobody special, two nobodies. Except that together, they're radioactive; together, they glow.
~ Robin Wasserman
The ultimate behaviour of these matter distributions, taking the form of massless radiation (in accordance with CCC's §3.2 requirements), can then leave its signature on the crossover 3-surface, and then perhaps be readable in subtle irregularities in the CMB.
~ Roger Penrose
While the nature of this radiation will give no information whatsoever on what fell into the black hole
~ Lawrence M. Krauss
light is an electromagnetic wave.
~ Lawrence M. Krauss
I've gone through back surgery a couple times, and of course, my radiation treatments for six weeks got me to the point where I was not able to play at the level that I was accustomed to.
~ Mario Lemieux
I find the idea quite intolerable that an electron exposed to radiation should choose of its own free will not only its moment to jump off but its direction. In that case I would rather be a cobbler, or even an employee in a gaming house, than a physicist.
~ Albert Einstein
I am ceaselessly occupied with the question of the constitution of radiation … This quantum question is so incredibly important and difficult that everyone should busy himself on it.
~ Albert Einstein
