Researchers may be nearing the creation of element 120. Element 120 would add a new row to the periodic table. New ion-bombardment technique may be the key to synthesising unbinilium.

Scientists might be close to producing a new, incredibly heavy element called "element 120." This element would be so massive that it would need a new row on the periodic table, which is the chart ...

Researchers have long been hunting for a way to make the elusive elements more stable so they can be better studied.
