Ununbium is a metal which is a silver-gray liquid melting at 15* Centigrade. Although it has an atomic weight of 285, it has a density of only 17.1 at 25*C due to the relatively large radius of its outer electron shell. It reacts slowly with air to give UnO (Ununbium Oxide). Since it is radioactive with a short half-life, it must be nuclearly stabilized using a strong force generator before being used. The main use of Ununbium is in a 3% alloy with Unobtanium; this alloy is approximately 10 times stronger than steel, lighter than magnesium, and melts at a temperature considerably above that of tungsten, as well as being resistant to corrosion from oxidizing agents including gases such as fluorine and all known acids and caustic agents.Due to its cost, it is used only in spacecraft and racing cars.
