	It's Elemental - The Element Hassium
		Hassium was first produced by Peter Armbruster, Gottfried Münzenber and their team working at the Gesellschaft für Schwerionenforschung in Darmstadt, Germany in 1984.
		This produced atoms of hassium-265, an isotope with a half-life of about 2 milliseconds (0.002 seconds), and a free neutron.
		Hassium's most stable isotope, hassium-277, has a half-life of about 12 minutes.

	Chemistry of Hassium, Element 108
		The researchers established that hassium forms a gaseous oxide similar to that of osmium, confirming that hassium, like osmium, is a member of group 8 of the periodic table and should be placed directly under it.
		Hassium does not exist in nature but must be created one atom at a time by fusing lighter nuclei.
		Hassium oxide was found to condense at a higher temperature than osmium oxide, indicating that it is less volatile.

		Hassium, with 108 protons in each atom, is the heaviest element yet to have its chemical properties analyzed.
		First created in 1984, hassium doesn't exist in nature—it must be made by combining the nuclei of lighter elements.
		For example, hassium atoms reacted with oxygen to form hassium oxide molecules that condensed at a temperature consistent with the behavior of group 8 elements, says Nitsche.
