The Telegraph: Radioactive wasp nest found next to nuclear weapons waste
A radioactive wasp nest was discovered at the Savannah River Site in South Carolina, where nuclear bomb components were previously manufactured. The nest had radiation levels ten times higher than federal limits but posed no danger to the public, according to officials.
Workers treated and disposed of the nest as radioactive waste, with no wasps found. The radiation is attributed to past contamination from the site's operational history, and there are no leaks from the waste tanks.
