Like, a metre cube for a box about the size of a fist.<br>(The same source is about as radioactive as naturally occurring rocks, stored in unshielded packaging, as well.

Peanuts, now with that extra oomph.<br><br>I just hope if I did ship radioactive material on a plane, it wouldn't take hours to clear, hehe.

IT will be funny to start up a conversation with my seat mate and say "I'm carying radioactive material, how 'bout you?"
