This is no ordinary geocaching trading item!
Radioactive Bug 001 is a Travel Bug Dog Tag, traveling from Geocache to Geocache on a very specific mission.
If you do not intend to log your visit onto the geocaching.com web site, please DO NOT TAKE THIS ITEM. Its travels and progress require you to log that it is being taken from this geocache. You will also need to log when you place it in another geocache. It's easy!
If you are willing to log your part of the journey of this item and place it in another geocache as soon as possible (after you log your find), grab it from this geocache.
My current goal:
Travel between Geocaches.

Uranium Doped Marble. More commonly known as "vaseline glass," these marbles have been doped with around 3% uranium dioxide to give them a slight yellowish color and a beautiful flourescence under longwave ultraviolet light. A single marble emits very low gamma and beta radiation, so they are perfectly safe to handle.

RADIOLOGICAL DOSIMETER CD V-742. For more than a quarter of a century, Dosimeter has been a leader in the development, manufacture and distribution of radiation detection equipment. THIS IS A PERSONAL UNIT made to carry in your pocket to determine when maximum exposure has been reached. A radiation dosimeter is a pen-like device that measures the cumulative dose of radiation received by the device. It is usually clipped to one's clothing to measure one's actual exposure to radiation. Magnifying lenses (a low-power microscope) and an illumination lens allow one to directly read the dose by aiming the illumination lens at a light source and looking into the device. For personal use, this is the most useful device to measure radiation, because biological damage from radiation is cumulative.

NITE TRITIUM GADGET KEYRING GLOWRING GLOW STICK.
The Nite GlowRing is the ultimate glow-in-the-dark keyring and the last word in ‘must have’ gadgets for the Geocacher. Featuring an ‘always-on’ glow which does not require batteries, the GlowRing can be seen from over 30ft away in total darkness. Glowrings are laser sealed borosilicate glass vials which are internally coated with phosphor injected with gaseous tritium (this is the radioactive stuff) which reacts with the phosphor to create a cold energy which produces a low level light source with no filaments or heat dissipation and no risk of fire or explosion. They require no exposure to light, remaining fail-safe and maintenance free with a lifetime in excess of 10-20 years. This item contains Radioactive H3 substance (a minute amount of phospherous tritium contained in a unbreakable polycarbonate casing) but is perfectly harmless and in no way a danger to anyone!

Radioactive Sign Fridge Magnet
Radiation as used in physics, is energy in the form of waves or moving subatomic particles. (Quantum mechanics predicts that waves can exhibit particle behavior (photons for example) and particles can exhibit wave behavior (De Broglie Wave for example), this is commonly called Wave-particle duality). Radiation can be ionizing or non-ionizing radiation, depending on its effect on atomic matter. The most common use of the word "radiation" refers to ionizing radiation. Ionizing radiation has enough energy to ionize atoms or molecules while non-ionizing radiation does not. Radioactive material is a physical material that emits ionizing radiation.
