I can’t prove it but either the Nuclear Museum incorporated some of my safety comments about Trinitite…

…or we both (me, having taught college students how to use condoms as a Peer Health educator) landed on not snorting & injecting Trinitite as important to mention.
Photo of a white man’s hand holding a piece of paper labeled Trinitite Background & Safety Info w/the logo of National Museum of Nuclear Science & History on upper left. Text of sheet reads as follows: Trinitite is melted sand from the first ever detonation of a nuclear weapon. This detonation took place in 1945 at the Trinity site near Alamogordo, New Mexico. Some scientists worried that the weapon wouldn't work at all, while guards and military officers feared it might destroy the state or even the entire planet. What it actually created was an explosion the size of 20,000 tons of TNT, a shallow depression over 1,000 feet wide, and a layer of Trinitite. Trinitite is-typically a porous, light green, glassy material. It contains not only melted and unmelted sand, but sometimes also microscopic fragments of the Trinity weapon itself. In the carly 1950s, the Trinity site was closed to the general public, and the remaining Trinitite was bulldozed and stored underground. It is now illegal to collect more Trinitite from the site, but it is still legal to keep and sell pieces already on the market. Trinitite contains a number of radioactive compounds and emits primarily alpha radiation. However, Trinitite is safe to handle when used according to the guidelines below. The alpha radiation from Trinitite cannot penetrate skin or thin barriers like the plastic box each specimen is • The Trinitite specimens sold at the National Museum of Nuclear Science and History are intended to be used for scientific study, scientific collections, or educational purposes only. • Specimens should NEVER be ingested, inhaled, or injected. Avoid handling specimens when you have any open cuts or wounds. • Keep specimens in boxes whenever possible to contain small particles that may fall off. Specimens should be stored in a well-ventilated area. • Wash your hands after handling specimens or use disposable latex gloves. • DO NOT allow children to handle or play

Bits of Trinitite (fused sand from the first atomic bomb test) that my grandmother collected while she worked there during the war.
Two pieces of Trinitite - scraggly bits of fused sand - embedded in a disc of some kind of clear resin.

"toddler upset because I wouldn't let them play with a jar of Trinitite during a diaper change" is a real thing that just happened but scans as self-parody

Some friends made me a pair of Trinitite* earrings.

I don’t wear them because they’re in poor taste, not because they’re radioactive.

Granted, Trinitite was more radioactive in 1946 and still mostly alpha.

*prompt local fallout from Trinity nuclear test, July 16 1945

My earrings:

If you see a weird looking storm, stay inside! You may be at risk for trinitosis.
Line art and halftone drawing of a gloved hand holding something spilling out of it that looks roughly like lumpy sand. Text reads: While barely radioactive, trinitite is still a health hazard. Most health officials recommend staying indoors if you notice storms with odd color tints, as this can be a sign of airborne trinitite shards that can be accidentally inhaled or ingested.

I also have some trinitite - melted radioactive desert sand from the site of the 'Trinity' test of the first nuclear weapon - but that's not especially rare I think?

Not just “mattered” but was probably decisive

Biden’s unwillingness to either crack down on Israel’s genocide or turn Gaza to a single flat sheet of trinitite contributed vastly to the public perception of him as a demented old man who wasn’t capable of doing what had to be done

The National Museum of Nuclear Science and History is selling Trinitite pebbles for an obscene price.
Image of small plastic boxes on a glass shelf. They all have $100 written on the front in ink. Directly behind is a white piece of paper on which the word “trinitite” can be distinguished. Overhead view of small plastic boxes showing they contain minuscule pieces of trinitite.

I have a piece of trinitite and (supposedly) a piece of the Berlin Wall, so I can hold the beginning and end of the Cold War in one hand.

Obligatory Trinitite sample at the Albuquerque Museum.

You can view video & photos of Trinity site—showing extent of Trinitite (IN COLOR!)—that I got through FOIA, here: flickr.com/photos/20058...

Contrary to Trinitite card, there is no “Trinity, NM”; test occurred nearest to Socorro.
Picture of a light brown cardboard rectangle displayed upright inside a plexiglass display case. The label reads “Trinitite Souvenir/Trinita de recuerdo” and “ca. 1965” and “ink on paper and trinitite” and “gift of the Albuquerque museum foundation from the Lucia v.B. Batten Estate.” The trinitite piece is approximately a qurter or half inch chunk of greenish dull rough rock. The card it is attached to has a mushroom cloud drawn above it. The card text reads: This is sand and earthy matter that was almost instantaneously fused into a glassy material by the terrific heat of the FIRST ATOMIC BOMB BLAST near Trinity, NM, July 16, 1945. This material has lost its radioactivity and is now perfectly safe to handle and store in your collection of mineral rarities.”

Regulate these people into trinitite.

Then tax the trinitite.
