1. Einsteinium
Element 99

2. Einsteinium Element Symbol: Es
Einsteinium is a synthetic element from the actinides metal series, it is the seventh transuranic element.

3. Why einsteinium?
Einsteinium is called Einsteinium because it was found from the component of the debris from the first hydrogen bomb in 1952.

4. Discovery
Einsteinium was found by Albert ” coincidence” Ghiorso, in 1952 from the debris of the first hydrogen bomb.

5. Uses
To this day there have been no found uses for Einsteinium

6. How its found
“The isotope they discovered, einsteinium-253, has a half-life of about 20 days and was produced by combining 15 neutrons with uranium-238, which then underwent seven beta decays. Today, einsteinium is produced though a lengthy chain of nuclear reactions that involves bombarding each isotope in the chain with neutrons and then allowing the resulting isotope to undergo beta decay.
Einsteinium's most stable isotope, einsteinium-252, has a half-life of about days. It decays into berkelium-248 through alpha decay or into californium-252 through electron capture.
Since only small amounts of einsteinium have ever been produced, it currently has no uses outside of basic scientific research.”(3)
