The Gilbert U-238 Atomic Energy Lab is a toy lab set designed to allow children to create and watch nuclear and chemical reactions using radioactive material. The Atomic Energy Lab was released by the A. C. Gilbert Company in 1950. Background and development.
Das Begleitmaterial des Gilbert U-238 Atomic Energy Laboratory enthielt deutliche Warnhinweise wie “ Users should not take ore samples out of their jars, for they tend to flake and crumble and you would run the risk of having radioactive ore spread out in your laboratory. ” (deutsch: „Benutzer sollten die Erzproben nicht aus den Gläsern nehmen, da sie zum Zerbröseln neigen und du das ...
5. Juni 2015 · Berühmt-berüchtigt ist in diesem Zusammenhang das „Gilbert U-238 Atomic Energy Set“, das in den USA zwischen 1951 und 1952 in den Spielzeugläden stand und Kindern die Möglichkeit bot, mit radioaktiven Substanzen zu experimentieren.
The A. C. Gilbert Company’s U-238 Atomic Energy Lab might not have been the first, but it was the most elaborate, “atomic” educational set ever produced for children. Its high price (ca. $50) and sophistication were the reasons Gilbert gave for the set's short lifespan: 1950 and 1951.

31. Jan. 2020 · Such was the warning that came with the Gilbert U-238 Atomic Energy Lab, a 1950s science kit that included four small jars of actual uranium. Budding young nuclear scientists were encouraged to use the enclosed instruments to measure the samples’ radioactivity, observe radioactive decay, and even go prospecting for radioactive ores.
