• In 1998, a team at Dubna surprised everyone by creating element 114.
• Siegert said element 114 is regarded as theoretically attainable.
• Late last year, the Dubna scientists made an isotope of element 114 with 175 neutrons.
• It was this same batch of Pu-244 the Russians used in January to create Element 114.
• However, the team is striving to reach element 114, which they hope will have a firm, stabilized composition.
