Most likely the Uranium is in a Trupack.

Not likely, Trupact, is licensed to transport TRANSURANIC waste (DOE wastes containing primarily low levels of Plutonium) to the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant faciliy in NM. Don't think it is used for Uranium powder. If this was a U powder, perhaps it was yellowcake, the unenriched precurser form for making UH6. (?)

Perhaps the Uranium was headed to Russia for one of Putin's Outreach Programs at the sushi restaurants in England

I wouldn't believe it's safe until Mike Nifong calls for an evacuation.

Wow, 5 cubic feet of uranium weighs 6000 lbs.

Dang! That IS dense.
