Provenance

Taken directly from the set of the NBC/Universal production, Battlestar Galactica, by Propworx staff.

Backup version of radiation badge used during the series and five unused level indicator disks. Radiation badges helped the wearer to determine their level of radiation exposure. When the badge is white, the wearer is clear of radiation. As the badge gets darker, the more dangerous the level of radiation. These badges played a prominent role in the Season 3 episode, “The Passage”.
