Seaborgium Tapestries

Sg is the periodic table element symbol for the radioactive metal seaborgium.

The orbitals are whirling in Storistir to make holiday ornaments! Seaborgium, element 106, was named after Glenn Seaborg, who was still alive when the element was named. This was controversial at the time since previously, elements were named after scientists who had died. Glenn Seaborg was a Nobel Prize winning Chemist whose work contributed significantly to the discovery and making of man-made elements, and to the arrangement of the actinides in the Periodic Table.

Stars like our sun make many elements, although not every known element has been detected in stars. All 118 elements including the man-made ones are listed in this design (in no particular order). Can you find your favorite element?

There are 15 transactinides currently, which are all man-made, short-lived and difficult to create. Can you name all 15?
