Element 117 being named soon.

The IUPAC is currently considering recognizing and naming the element 117. I would like all fellow gamers to join me in petitioning their facebook to name the element after Master Chief. Here are the details:

The element is heavy. It has been missing from the periodic table for a while. No proposed name is published.

My idea: MASTERCHIEFIUM

Lets work on making the periodic table a little more cool!

I vote just “Spartan 117” for the name. Funny we already have Prome­thium 61 “Pm” and Nobel­ium 102 “No”.

Side note some Aussie science equipment was used to confirm the new 117 element, go Aussies :slight_smile:

Spartanium?
Hehe, but the name should probably be named after something more deserving in the field of science.

I now want to change my vote to your entry.

Halsum

Representing Dr Halsey who created Spartan II

Mjolnirium (I think I spelt Mjolnir right)

> Mjolnirium (I think I spelt Mjolnir right)

Reclaimium?

I thought they’ve gotten to 118, along with some trials for 119, 120, and 127.
They haven’t been named, but i thought they were already discovered.

Why not name it Haloium for simplicity’s sake?

Sparta was a large pioneer in the science department, so it would be nice to name it after them; not to mention that the Romans based much of their culture on Sparta, and we all know that they’re the gods of engineering.

I’d rather have Johnium.

I vote for Halonium.

Or something like that.

Cortanite? Didactium? Reachius?? Mdamaphourus??? ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES!!!

Then make it part of the Halogen Family on the Periodic Table.
Even though that’s not scientifically possible. I say heck to that. Defy science.

“Legends are not simply born. They are compressed down under the weight of a planet for hundreds of millions of years into existence.”

I think Spartium or Didactium would work well…at least, IMO. :stuck_out_tongue:

Hah! Awesome. I vote Chiefium.

Reclaimite!

Silentium. :slight_smile:

Halite

I vote Chiefium.
