Why do we associate nuclear radiation with a green glow?

So I just saw the YouTube video someone posted that showed nuclear reactors starting up, and the first thing I noticed was that they all glowed a very bright, pretty blue. I'm probably an idiot, but I was honestly expecting green, because of many years of dramatized depictions in popular media....

PlutoniumAcid,

I have a small tritium light source on each of my key chains. Extremely useful!

They come in various colors, even. I use blue for car keys, yellow for house keys, red for bike keys.

PlutoniumAcid,

Could you please clarify: are you tailking about a particular Lemmy instance, or the entire Lemmy software product?

PlutoniumAcid,

Thank you. That is cause for abandoning Lemmy entirely, for reasons of principle.
Although, ironicall, I don't really see it will make much difference as long as Lemmy is still widely federated.

PlutoniumAcid,

The Voynich manuscript: is it an elaborate hoax? Is it real? What does it mean?
