it glows a red under electric current, most of the signs you see dont even usually have Neon in them anymore, usually Argon, or Xenon. all of these are called Noble Gasses. this means they WILL NOT bond with ANY other element on the table. they are located at the far right of the table, and they further the left, the more "bondable". i wouldn't think it to be healthy to inhale that stuff, so yeah its prolly noxious. and as for explosive, think of it like this: its neighbor, Argon, is commonly used in blow-torches. so flammable? yeah, most likely. usually your only radio-active things are : man-made elements (neon isnt one.) and your compounds. so its not radioactive.

I think you should have made the effort to do a web search for this. It would have taken you less time than to post your question.
Do your own homework, please.
(Symbol Ne) A rare, inert gaseous element occurring in the atmosphere to the extent of 18 parts per million and obtained by fractional distillation of liquid air. It is colorless but glows reddish orange in an electric discharge and is used in display and television tubes. Atomic number 10; atomic weight 20.180; melting point −248.67°C; boiling point −245.95°C.
