I was just about to say the same:

That was one hint to many.:na:
Made it instantly googleable.

 

[Coherent Light]

Yes that's it millirad!!!!!!!! Care to guess which vehicle this one is attached too? It was launched within the last 10 years..

Also there is only 5 or 6lbs of the plutonium-238 dioxide left in the world and that will impact future missions.

The U.S. has launched 26 missions that have used a total of 45 RTG's
