Element 115


Bob Lazar claims that flying disk propulsion systems are based on element 115. Although he claims to be a physicist and to have spent considerable time working with the element, he has also claimed to be unable to recall the atomic mass of the element. This document attempts to determine what the atomic mass of Element 115 might be.

Some information on element 111.

A deficiency of neutrons in higher elements might be a cause of instability. A stable isotope of element 115 might have a higher atomic mass than 281. Uranium, Plutonium and Curium are relatively stable and have a slightly larger increase in mass number with atomic number over previous elements. Favouring heavier combinations, these three elements sum with other elements to yield atomic number 115 having atomic mass totals of 288.972, 286.956 and 287.1414 respectively. Uranium-Vanadium ( 288.972 ) and Fermium-Phosphorous ( 288.0791 ) combinations yield high mass numbers. These mass numbers, however, might be too high, leading to new instability due to excess neutrons.

It is possible that the nucleus might need to be ordered in a special way to be stable at high atomic numbers.
