How to pronounce “astatine” in English

And this lump of astatine would promptly turn into a column superheated steam by that heat

And so astatine, the reason it decays so violently and destroys the building you're in, is that its half-life is only eight hours.

And astatine will just have a question mark, because there is no way-- if you have a sample that

If it were a substantially larger chunk of astatine, then there would be no one left to submit paperwork to.

This is why no one has ever collected enough of a sample of astatine to really look at it, because any sample large enough to see with a naked eye

In the handbooks, if you look up astatine, you'll find all its density and stuff and its various properties.

like that, the amount of astatine that you would be using here is a quantity that maximizes

So all of the energy that's released by your column of heated astatine rising into the stratosphere over the course of an afternoon

My favorite thing about looking up these elements is, if you look under astatine, there are all these great chemistry data tables,

is large enough to reflect light, the light that the astatine is emitting will be brighter than whatever it is you're trying to illuminate it with.

And that will probably be a mystery forever, because those are chunks of astatine that are a collection of a bunch of molecules in one place.

This would be a chunk of about a liter, which is more astatine than has ever been made or exists in the world.

All of these elements way down the table are decaying until they reach something so stable as astatine, and then they take a break.

For that, we're going to go to the sixth row, because the sixth throw contains astatine.

Rover over the course of the next century, if it keeps running, is being limited by our lump of astatine in an afternoon.

But if you did this, there would be no way-- if it were a smaller amount of energy coming from the astatine, you might be able to cover it up.
