Original Note:
Radium-226's halflife is considerably shorter than Uranium-235 or Plutonium-239, and lasts only 1,600 years, and as a result releases considerably more ionizing radiation. Additionally it is one million times more active than uranium. https://doh.wa.gov/sites/default/files/legacy/Documents/Pubs/320-081_ra226_fs.pdf
