Did you know that nukes can help identify some fake oil paintings? (1 Viewer)

This is by looking to see if the oil paintings in question contain certain forms of radioactivity not naturally found on earth. If an oil painting contains strontium-90 and cesium-137, that means the oil painting was painted after 1945. Therefore, if the legitimate oil painting was supposed to be painted before that year, it means you have a fake.

If you do that you definitely won’t need to wonder anymore because both the pairing and you will be obliterated

nuke all fake paintings then?

It's fine, let's just blow up a potentially $5000000 painting all in the name of science
.....and authenticity.

^ similar to the abovementioned posts - you mean we use nuclear material to identify oil paintings right and not a nuclear warhead??? lol

You just need to take a small sample of paint and run it through a device that can identify whether these isotopes are in the paint. If they are, the painting was made after 1945 because before that the isotopes didn’t exist.

that's what I thought since obviously nuking painting is a bad idea

Yeah as a general rule nuking anything isn’t a great idea

dunno my friend - you're a painter and artist
what of those paintings suddenly became sentient because of the nuclear material and turned on their owners...
