3276 Macro Mondays - The Periodic table. Uranium (U) Atomic No 92

Uranium is named after the planet Uranus. This is a dish made from Uranium glass, it is usually in the form of oxide diuranate which is added to the glass. It is weakly radioactive. If put under an ultra-violet light it glows brightly. This is under sunlight as I don’t have an ultra-violet lamp.
