So, what happens when put a bunker busting bomb into a weapons grade Plutonium-239 facility in Iran?
People dying in the blowing sands there for 24,100 years and likely double that for the full life of Plutonium-239 likely blown up into the air of Iran from Fordham nuclear weapons building site.
Begin quote from Google AI:
The primary isotope in weapons-grade plutonium is plutonium-239, which has a half-life of approximately 24,100 years. This means it takes about 24,100 years for half of the plutonium-239 atoms to decay into other elements. While plutonium-239 is the most common, weapons-grade plutonium also contains other isotopes like plutonium-240, which has a half-life of about 6,560 years.
