"Nuclear Road Trip: Shipping Uranium A Complex Task" [1]

"A shipment of bomb-grade uranium arrived at a secure facility in Russia Monday, sent from a research reactor in Poland as part of a race to secure dangerous radioactive material around the world. There was no way to mistake the shipment for something innocuous like Polish sausage — the trucks were escorted by heavily armed police officers and plastered with large radioactive signs."

Geoff Brumfiel reports for NPR's Morning Edition October 11, 2010. [2]
