Unniloctium

Unniloctium was an element on the periodic table.

Unniloctium was a naturally occurring element on Earth. It was first discovered by humans in 1984. Trace amounts of unniloctium deposits were also found in G-class star systems.

Mr Sin's knife was made of an alloy of unniloctium and nitinol. (PROSE: The Shadow of Weng-Chiang [+]Loading...["The Shadow of Weng-Chiang (novel)"])

Behind the scenes[[edit] | [edit source]]

Element 108 was given the temporary name unniloctium in 1979 and was first synthesised in 1984. The name Hassium was proposed in 1992 and accepted in 1997, after The Shadow of Weng-Chiang [+]Loading...["The Shadow of Weng-Chiang (novel)"] was published in 1996. Despite claims in the novel, it is not a naturally occurring element on Earth.
