ScienceActually<p>Strontium-90 (Sr-90) and cesium-137 (Cs-137) are radioactive isotopes that didn’t exist before the 1940s. In art forensics, if a painting claimed to be from before 1945 contains trace amounts of these isotopes in the paint or other materials used in the artwork, it strongly suggests it’s a forgery.</p><p>Thanks for sharing, Ilias I.!</p><p><a href="https://sfba.social/tags/science" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>science</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/sciencefacts" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sciencefacts</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/isotopes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>isotopes</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/radioactive" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>radioactive</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/strontium90" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>strontium90</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/cesium137" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cesium137</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/artforgery" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>artforgery</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/artforensics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>artforensics</span></a></p>

However, the IAEA has failed to investigate the operation of the ALPS, has completely ignored the highly radioactive fuel debris that melted down which continues every day to contaminate ground water – nearly 1000 cubic meters every ten days. Furthermore, the discharge plan has failed to conduct a comprehensive Environmental Impact Assessment, as required by its international legal obligations, given that there is a risk of significant transboundary harm to neighboring countries. The IAEA is not tasked with protecting the global marine environment but it should not encourage a state to violate it."</p><p><a href="https://www.greenpeace.org/international/press-release/61364/japan-announces-date-for-fukushima-radioactive-water-release/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">greenpeace.org/international/p</span><span class="invisible">ress-release/61364/japan-announces-date-for-fukushima-radioactive-water-release/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/IAEALies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>IAEALies</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/TEPCOLies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TEPCOLies</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/WaterIsLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WaterIsLife</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/FukushimaIsntOver" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FukushimaIsntOver</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/FukushimaDaiichi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FukushimaDaiichi</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NoDumping" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NoDumping</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NuclearPowerPlant" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NuclearPowerPlant</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/RadioactiveWater" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RadioactiveWater</span></a></p>
