Default Island of stability

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Island_of_stability

With the creation of Eka-radon Atomic Element 118
recently we are another step closer to the Island of Stability
--a point where ultra heavy elements wil be stable.

This is intersting because the physical properties of
ultra heavy elements will likely open new doors to
our knowledge of physics, and hopefully lead us to
a fuller understanding of gravity...
