      Hi chase. One of the other scientists might wanna jump in on this (possibly Oliver of Leigh) as physics is not my field, but its my understanding that there is other heavier elements beyond the current periodic table.
      .
      The only problems with generating these elements is how unstable and how quickly they decay into more stable ones (which makes detecting them and ultimately proving their existance difficult)
      .
      So yeah they can exist just not for very long 😛
