In a feat of modern-day alchemy, scientists have used a beam of vaporized titanium to create one of the heaviest elements on Earth – and they think this new method could pave the way to even heftier horizons.
This is the first time the new technique – in which a hunk of the rare isotope titanium-50 is heated to almost 1,650 °C (3000 °F) to release ions that are beamed at another element – has successfully produced a superheavy element, livermorium.
Livermorium was first synthesized back in 2000, and it’s not the heaviest element humans have created (that would be oganesson, atomic number 118).

Earth is immense, but we only live on a thin shell of its surface. So what if we built a planet with only that thin shell, or with several layers of them?
