Why and how were you measuring this?
(Really interesting BTW!)
So we get 100x more powerful X-ray in security vs the flight? Crazy
What was the distance of the flights?
Man I’m an idiot, I was wondering why you’re spending your time flying around just to go get x-rays at different places (maybe different doctors for different opinions but couldn’t they just look at the same x-ray and give you an opinion?), until I remembered airport security exists.
