FLYING AND HEALTH: COSMIC RADIATION EXPOSURE FOR CASUAL Introduction. People travelling in aircraft may be exposed to more ionising radiation than they would be exposed to on the ground. The increased exposure occurs because the Earth’s atmosphere provides less protection from cosmic radiation at the typical cruising altitudes of commercial aircraft, which are usually between 7 000 and12 000 metres.
BRITISH NUCLEAR WEAPONS TESTING IN AUSTRALIA From 1952 to 1963, the British government, with the permission of the Australian government, conducted a series of nuclear weapons development tests in Australia. Following the clean-up of the area around Maralinga in South Australia where nuclear weapons testing was conducted, radiation dose assessments have shown that the area is suitable for access. RADIATION PROTECTION SERIES NO. 11 Version 1 of Radiation Protection Series Publication No.11 Security of Radioactive Sources was approved by the Radiation Health Committee on 28 November 2006 and on 8 December 2006 the Radiation Health and Advisory Council advised the CEO to adopt the Code of Practice.
