Warframe is set in a version of our solar system where technology is much more advanced than ours. Why can't we just refrigerate Argon Crystals?
 

The Kubros are taking up all the freezer space

I think the Void's environment makes Argon crystallize in a special way, and it's that crystal structure, or maybe the radiation given by its decay, that we utilize. Not the crystal in itself.

Or the void slows down the decay - they've got a half life in game of 24 hours, while IRL Ar-41 (which is really easy to get, just bombard plain old argon with neutrons) has a half life of 1.83 hours.

Did y'all seriously think Argon was a fictional element created specifically for Warframe?

 

im sure alot of us just look at something and go "Yup, space magic.  Nothing to think about here, it's space magic."

 

or something.  lol

Ah, that must mean Oxium is real.

I mean, I knew, but there are tons of fictional elements in games. It's better to assume it's fake, than going around talking about this element you think is real.

You could always google the element to see if it is real.

Anyone who has taken the most basic of science classes (and not slept through it) should know that argon is an element.

This makes the most sense to me.

 

I think people are confusing phase change with radioactive decay. They're two entirely different properties of matter.

That's what I do for stuff I don't know, but that doesn't mean other people do it.

Eh, argon wasn't really an important element in my class.

You're also expecting way too much from humanity.

Like i have said in another thread. This argon is probable a different isotope and therefore has different properties since this theoretical isotope doesn't adhear to our logic (being Formed in the void and all) and of course being taken out of the void they decay as they lose stability as it is an impossible substance outside of the void.
