Eli5: Is it possible that there are elements on other planets, we don’t have on earth and haven’t discover yet?
In: Chemistry
There is no space left in the table for any stable elements, we have identified all of those now and the only one left are super theoretical like super-lead (elements past 118 are theorised but haven’t been made, super lead is believed to exist around 170 I think)
Star trek stuff like Dilithiun and Benemite will not exist as elements but there is space for new and unusual compounds and minerals that may exist in conditions completely alien to us here – just without the space warping magic sadly
