Superheavy Elements Are Breaking the Periodic Table
Briefly

Superheavy elements starting at rutherfordium, like oganesson, have unstable nuclei that decay rapidly. Scientists have only created a few atoms of the heaviest element, and its radioactivity would make it more heat than matter.
Research on these superheavy elements with unique properties like pumpkin-shaped nuclei and relativistic electron behavior could provide insights into the origins of primordial elements from cosmic events and enhance our understanding of natural matter.
