They exist for only seconds at most in real life, but they’ve gained immortality in chemistry: Two new elements have been added to the periodic table.
The elements were recognized by an international committee of chemists and physicists. They’re called elements 114 and 116 for now — permanent names and symbols will be chosen later.
You’re not likely to run into any of this stuff. Scientists make them in labs by smashing atoms of other elements together to create the new ones.
Well, my job is boring.
