Uranium - 92

Uranium is one of the important and interesting elements in the periodic table,
because scientists are using it for nuclear weapon and energy production.
Uranium contamination is an emotive environmental problem. It is not
particularly rare and is more common than beryllium or tungsten for instance. Its
atomic number is 92. Uranium gives interesting yellow and green colors when
included to glass. Those types of glasses are called "vaseline glass".
! Melting point: 1405.3 [or 1132.2 C (2070 F)] K

! Density of solid: 19050 kg m-3
Plutonium - 94
Plutonium has a half-life of more than 20000 years. One kilogram is equivalent to
about 22 million kilowatt hours of heat energy. The complete detonation of a
kilogram of plutonium produces an explosion equal to about 20000 tons of
chemical explosive. The isotope 233Pu was used in the American Apollo lunar
missions to power seismic and other equipment on the lunar surface.
