        Yes, microwaves are non-ionizing radiation. I would not suggest sticking your head in your microwave while it’s running though.

          It doesn’t say ionizing either bud. Radar at close up or very high levels can fuckup avionics leading to crashes.

          If it were ionizing they would probably say more because wind in that area isn’t constant direction.

            You now know a place in the world where you can overfly a giant microwave. Fo science!

                Dude, I happen to have a metric shit ton of hours on various flight simulators. If you happen to have another shit ton of money we could manage something.

        Non ionizing radiation means it doesn’t produce free radicals through destruction of chemical bonds. Any type of radiation that interacts with a material and has a high enough ERP will heat that thing up. Cell phone spectrum is non ionizing but the high powered towers can still cook the brain inside a skull.
