Tennessine is a synthetic, superheavy, and highly radioactive element. It exists only in powder form, yet cannot be smelted by any means. It is blueish-gray in color, and is non-radioactive.

Production

Tennessine can be artificially produced by bombarding plutonium powder with a box of plutonium dust via the Cyclotron. There are no natural sources or alternative methods to obtaining tennessine.

Uses

The main use of tennessine is to artificially produce australium within a cyclotron (more details in the main page). Other than that, tennessine has very mundane uses, which include:

Trivia

  • Tennessine is named after the US state Tennessee
  • Despite being highly radioactive and unstable in real life, tennessine in the mod is non-radioactive and stable, even though produced by plutonium
