Authorities scanning a remote Australian highway for a tiny missing radioactive capsule have found it by the roadside

State emergency authorities announced the discovery on Wednesday afternoon, six days after the capsule, containing highly radioactive Caesium-137, was discovered missing from a package sent hundreds of kilometers from a Rio Tinto mining site in northern Western Australia to the capital Perth.

Commissioner Darren Klemm said the capsule was found in the “best possible area” due to its remote location and to find it in such a short amount of time was “amazing.” “A lot of work went in around the metro area based on some intelligence early on… so, you can’t help but imagine there was an element of surprise for the people in the car when the equipment spiked,” he said.

Actually, if we are talking about a sewing needle…you would see it, as it would stand out from the hay.

Has anyone ever tried finding a needle in a haystack? What if it's really easy.

Giger counters work, as do magnets.

🆘

...What IS Australia? Like how did this get out of the carrying container? Or did they just have it thrown in the back of a pick up?

I have to imagine they have machines to find radioactivity rather than using their eyes. That seems less, 'needle in a haystack' and more 'the machine that goes 'ding' told me it is over there' 'ding'.

Been found

6mm by 8mm. How the hell did it get lost? Moreover, how the hell did it get found?

Crazy shit going to have some oversized creatures there .....

New low ratings from fake news CNN.

Found it….

What was the reason to create a capsule that can cause a global pandemic

The news just need to be 'breaking' and exciting enough to heat up the news outlets so to draw public attention,then be forgotten! Who cares about the basic unanswered questions?

Australia needs nuclear power.

Wow, these guys must have been amazing at hide and SEEK.

Was telling my great aunt this today, she's 114. That capsule is the size of an orange tic tac, nothing to worry about

I had to find out on REUTERS, not a Perth page, that the penalty for this debacle was a $1000 fine... UNBELIEVABLE.

🤌🤌🤣🤣🤣👇🤮🤮

I have a lot of questions as to how something this small and dangerous manages to “fall off a truck”

Putin had it...

Happens a lot, specifically on the highway…🤣

6x6x8 mm (I know its round). How was it packed? It must have been in a box with min 1000x1000x1000mm. Even then nearly for sure on a special vehicle. How was it found? With, or without the surrounding packaging/protection?

Australia really stretching this 'everything wants to kill you' theme.

I can't even imagine trying to find a needle in a haystack. That comparison really drives home how difficult the search must have been.

WHY they ship caesium 137 in tiny capsules to mines .... by truck.... WHY?

Oh good I thought I was going to be fired 😌

...and if it is so 'tiny' what harm could it unleash may I ask ? Why is no one telling us ?

Who hoo! Home free 🙌
