Good to know. I remember when that Soviet spy satellite crashed in Northern Canada back in the 70’s. Supposedly the contamination was pretty significant.

Oh, heck yeah! That was Cosmos 954. The recovery effort was a joint US-Canadian operation dubbed “Operation Morning light.” The recovery teams scoured an area of about 48,000 square miles. One of the recovered pieces emitted 500 R/h.
