Japan: Drone carrying traces of radioactive material lands on roof of prime minister's office

I agree with you. A person I follow on Twitter posted a photo of himself in a hangar near a Reaper drone, which isn’t much smaller than a light plane, and I and a few other people reacted that it seems wrong to use the same word for these war machines and for toy RC helicopters.

That’s like saying a battery or a capacitor contains traces of radiation because it stores energy.

In which case a 100% pure lump of carbon-12 sitting at the top of a hill contains traces of radiation because of the potential energy in that system can be tuned into radiation if propely harvested.
