[[Canon|Canonical]] information from several episodes (noted in detail in "[[The Farm]]" by [[Simon]]) indicate that the radiation effects from nuclear fallout on [[Twelve Colonies#Caprica|Caprica]] appear identical with the classic radiation poisoning symptoms from plutonium here on the real-world Earth, strongly suggesting that the element is identical in both "universes."
