How small we are.

All of the possible electron totals shy of the superheavy elements are accounted for.

There can be more elements with already existing electron totals, just with different properties.

Yes, but we don't really KNOW that everything pre-superheavy is stable and everything post-superheavy isn't.

See: Technetium, which has no stable isotopes and is way, way, WAY before the superheavies.

But we know of everything pre-superheavy, and whether or not it is stable. Plus, post-superheavy elements are extremely scarce, so I don't really see how life could be based on such a rare element.

Possibilities.

Possibilities.

Except not because an element is defined by the amount of protons there are. We have an element for every number of protons from 1 to ~110.

There could however be the possibility that some radically weird isotopes exist with tons or no neutrons and potentially other subatomic particles in them.

Now consider an atom in that space

My mind just broke, help please.

it means the planets are ours to colonize and explore :)

Except we can't go over the speed of light, which takes years to reach the nearest star. You can try wormhole travel but in my opinion, the theory of the universe is flawed.

Also I learned that the universe is a 2d plane.
So we are all skinny as forget.

That's quite a strong statement. You must be the world's first 13 year old theoretical astrophysicist.

[SPooK]

I think that we are in between the infinitely big and the infinitely small. O_o

[dkamm65]

-meh-

[HellHound]

I honestly beleive there are multiple universes, it's just that reaching them is impossible as they're all pocket universes.

Wait discard that other thing I said.
I remember that it said it is like a soccer ball that is only getting bigger.
